Mrs. Hunt's Three Cups of Tea Blog

1. Jean is proud because he donated one million dollars to the CAI (Central Asia Institute) before he died to make sure they had enough money for a while. Another way he shows that he is proud is that he asked Greg to send him a picture of the Korphe school to see its progress.

2. One thing that happened that was interesting to me was that Mohammed Aslam Khan's daughter went to a school in Hushe. People would tell her she had no business attending school but she persisted in her studies. She became the top student in her class. This is interesting to me because even though people told her she shouldn't be in school she kept going and became the best student. Another detail that happened that interested me was that when Mohammed Aslam Khan was a boy his father had to leave the village. So he sent Mohammed to go to school. He had to go across a river to get there even though he couldn't swim. Then a stranger helped him up and told him how brave he was. This is interesting to me because it showed how much he would do to go to school.
