The kids definitely did not have those colors. Most of them were lucky to even have a pen, and the red pens were being passed around and shared in many cases. Even for the Ethiopian flag I recently drew for a poster in my classroom needed a little creativity, as the only marker colors I have are red, green, blue, and black. I happened to have a highlighter I was able to use for the yellow. The timing of you question is actually perfect, I was just thinking how I should have someone bring/send over a big box of crayons, a variety of sharpie markers, and other items for more color variety.

In spite of the emotional lows, or maybe because of them, you will continue to grow and be more of the incredible PCV which you are. Bunches of love to you Joe, and btw, I thought that the colors of the Ethiopian flag were green, yellow and red. Did the kids not have those colors in their boxes?Mama Dukeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06162636509381532367noreply@blogger.com
