This allows her to participate regularly as avolunteer in local elementary schools and otherplaces around Northfield. Zin Mar has a sincereconcern for those around her. She dreams ofbecoming a civil rights attorney when she goesback to Myanmar so that she can assist disadvantaged girls who are subject to illegal traffickingin Burma. The service learning class offered herhost school continues to reinforce this aspirationin Zin Mar.In Myanmar most homes do not have ovens.The Amunruds have had fun introducing ZinMar to the art of baking. She has been very curious how to add ingredients and the chemistrythat is involved in the process. On special occasions Zin Mar will prepare a traditional Burmesedinner of stir-fry and fried rice for the family.The experience to host an exchange studentfrom Myanmar has been a positive one for theAmunruds. It has provided them an opportunityto appreciate their family, home, and communityfrom a fresh perspective. “My own culture andcustoms are taking on a new meaning. This hasbeen an enriching experience for us, as a family. Itmakes you stop and think about your life differently and has made me more intentional aboutmy own life and life choices,” reports Joy. Thanksto the love and special care of Joy and her family,Zin Mar will cherish this incredible winterlandadventure. When she returns to Myanmar atthe end of the school year she may finally get achance to thaw out but she will certainly haveCombs Orthodontics418 E. 30th Ave., Spokane, WA 99203(509) 624-1139www.combsotho.comCounselling /Mental Health:Combs Orthodontics605 E.
