¡Estoy aquí! (I´m here!)

Well, I arrived in Quito safely! The only problem is I don´t have my luggage. Last night, the airline said it should come today, but it hasn´t yet. I can´t start teaching until I have it. I am really hoping and pryaing it comes soon!
My family here is very nice. They are Ecuadorian...mom, dad, and two sons, who are 21 and 23. They also have a maid, who is very nice and brought me a whole pot of hot tea this morning for my throat. She also made a different (Dominican Republic trip people, remember....different is good! haha) , but delicious lunch today.
I have my own room and bathroom and it´s all very nice. Though I have to say I was kind of surprised when I took my shower and it was freezing! Guess I should have been expecting that one. Today I just sat around, talked with the family and watched some TV in Spanish...kind of funny, I watched She´s So Raven, which I watch at home a lot. Here it´s Es Tan Raven.
I´ve been told that Mrs. Weber, the teacher who I´ll be student teaching with, is very nice and excited to meet me. Also, her class has been asking about me for weeks and can´t wait for me to come. So if you want to pray for me, Pray that my bag comes quickly!!! Thanks...missing you all! Fam, I hear the family picture turned out great, can´t wait to see it!
