Unfortunately we cannot bring it with us when we flee to America. 😥😥 Brother Quang suggested that we chop down the tree- I really don't want to but no one will be here to water it so that could be our only option.   😪😪]]> 2020-12-09 13:54:22 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1002099296 alaina_mcmahon https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1002108358 I wish I was somewhere else at the time but I guess this is the best thing that we could do. Even though I am in the middle of the ocean.]]> 2020-12-09 13:56:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1002108358 josephinavataj https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1002114796 Ughh it's so cramped, although everyone ran to the other ship.My brother stinks. Our food is rationed even though were still eating moldy rice.😑 Captain says we missed the bombs although I can hear Sudan vanish within the distance. I wonder where were gonna call home?😥

Our cowboy took us to his house and when we first arrived there was this mean lady at the front door who I am assuming didn't want us there... Her name is K-ar-en, Karen. I had trouble figuring that out. But we are living in this little underground space called a b-b-ase-ment, basement and there is only one little window that I can't even reach.]]> 2020-12-09 14:00:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1002124858 alaina_mcmahon https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1002127652 You probably think that this will be a good thing but I guess this is not for everyone.  Most of the time we aren't even welcome here so everyone either stares at us or does bad things to us.]]> 2020-12-09 14:01:00 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1002127652 alaina_mcmahon https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1006022759 If you are still unsure on what the papaya means to mean it's basically the meaning of home.  We never really had many chances to get to eat the papay's on the tree so we wanted to wait until we could. That can't happen now because we have to move so I guess I'll have to get over it because I will never see it again.]]> 2020-12-10 13:39:09 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1006022759 kayleeflynn1 https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1006029956 We were just allowed out into the public but only to got to school... I wish this Karen lady would just let us go out :/ When I got to school I was the only olive skin and black haired girl there... there was a boy picking at my arm hairs but I didn't know what he was saying about them  🥺 I had to count to 10 in english and everyone clapped for me... if only they knew how smart I actually was.]]> 2020-12-10 13:41:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1006029956 josephinavataj https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1006031847 Well were in Alabama- 
Mother says we must learn English.🙄 Brother Quang offers to help, he says there are a lot of rules. I have a dictionary in one hand and a book in the other. I look everything up.I get eyeballs stain move. I have no idea what that means.... But no of course brother Quang says its Jane  sees a dog named spot run. How is this possible I cant read a baby book, I used to read Nhát Linh! 😠
#Brother Quang is not helping ]]> 2020-12-10 13:41:35 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1006031847 alaina_mcmahon https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1006038990 The food here is really odd to me I have never ever had processed food but now we have to eat it every day. I find it really gross because I am used to eating fresh food out of the market. Of course the first thing that I ate was a KFC chicken wing or something like that. I found it really fross and I hated it. I know we have to get used to this because we are going to stay here for a while.]]> 2020-12-10 13:43:32 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1006038990 kayleeflynn1 https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1006063290 I met this neighbor Mrs. Washington that's down the road from my families own house... with hideous furniture 🤢 Anyways... Mrs. Washington rewards me with pancakes and cookies for every word that sticks with me! So I'm learning english much quicker 😋😼😼😼]]> 2020-12-10 13:49:40 UTC https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1006063290 josephinavataj https://padlet.com/kayleeflynn1/qljwy49sr8bt4x0k/wish/1006088541 In school, I feel like dragonflies are just zipping right through my gut!As I walk in to the classroom this lady walks strait up to me.
