Brooke and Suman helped to organize the words for the Spelling Bee and general knowledge contest. Emily was one of the people who read the words to the younger children. It was so cute to watch her saying the words, the little kids repeating it, spelling it and repeating the word again. At one stage Lakshmi came up to me to say they don't understand Emily's English pronouncation! Imagine that!! It's all relative!! It just makes me appreciate diversity so much. We are always saying we have a hard time understanding the Indian English accent, well, in their eyes (about 1.1B of them), we are the ones with the accent!!
So a teacher was assigned to repeat what Emily said :)
All is well at the end and it was a great day for the children!
