My name is Kassi and I go to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.  I am currently studying nursing in hopes to one day be a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner.  I love playing soccer and actually got to play with my family last night.  One more fun fact is, this is my first time out of the country and I did not know any Spanish before coming to Guatemala!
Today was a fun day.  I taught two girls how to play hop scotch.  They were not sure about the game.  Also, I saw a woman, Maria, who is 38 years old and she came in complaining of burning and pain in the right arm and chest for one week.  Lately, she stated that she has a craving for eating dirt.  This desire to eat dirt is called pica and is related to a vitamin or iron deficiency.  I will have to do more research on it when I get home.

Kassi, Kassi, Kassi!! It was so good to hear your voice today. I love this site and being able to hear what you all are doing. Saw that one of your group is from Knoxville. Again, what a small world!!! So glad you are with other Christians doing the Lord's work. I'm sure he is smiling down on you and your group. I am so very proud of my little princess not afraid of a little dirt and grime!! Keep up the teeth pulling and we continue to pray for you. I love you, Mom
