Today Gracen and I went to the annual Workers’ Appreciation Luncheon at our school. Ms. Theresa has been the Grade One maid (I’ll never get used to that word) since I arrived here in Kuwait, and I’ll always have a special place in my heart for her. “Workers” around Kuwait are often treated and paid very poorly, and somehow many remain extremely kind and generous… Theresa was so excited to see Gracen and I that she ran up behind us and basically tackled us with a giant group hug. It scared the living daylights out of Grae to say the least, so that explains her less than cheery face in this photo. Ms. Theresa, you will be missed! :(
