Hosting

I had been asked in the past to host a foreign exchange student and I said "No" because I was working and I have no kids living at home.  I couldn't imagine why I would want a foreign teenager living with me.  This year, since I am retired, I said "yes" to hosting the chaperone for the exchange students.  She is 32 and thus able to legally drink alcoholic beverages.  I had no idea how much fun it was going to be.  Having Sabine around is like having a daughter with no boyfriend, husband or kids - a daughter I can have to myself.  She has gone to the Y with me, we went biking at Ohiopyle together, she helped me with my 4th of July party and she joined the FBBC crowd when we went to dinner and a movie.  I hope she is having as much fun as I am.
