Tuesday, March 21st - After a morning of exploring Stellenbosch, Craig and I joined Addi after school at the Academy. While she continued her ongoing project of sketching the students, Craig taught an after-school art class and I got a few girls started on a sewing project.
Wednesday was a holiday for the kids, so we spent that day working on projects with them. My "seamstresses" and I continued to work on our aprons. We resorted to hand sewing when the machine decided to simply stop working. Craig hung out with the Boyd, at their request. He provided a snack of soda and chips and fielded questions about his life.
Thursday was the last full day of school and the last chance for Craig and I to spend with the kids. Against all odds, my girls finished their aprons just in time for a photo before dinner. We three then whisked our sponsored daughter, Zenande, off to a pizza dinner in nearby Franschhoek.
Friday am the kids packed up for their three week school break. Craig and I provided a going-away treat of cake and copies of photos to bring to their families. We enjoyed lots of warm, goodbye hugs.
