Going Well

Hey, things with our big group o' kids is going well so far! Marc even said he was "surprisingly calm" as the bus load arrived Tuesday morning! 65 students. I will be the first to admit that I'm a very emotional person and can easily cry....and I'm probably a bit more emotional these days anyway but... I've been hearing stories already from the week and seeing how their world view has changed already in just a few short days, and I've been moved to tears several times. I told Marc last night "Why haven't I seen such-and-such place like that?" We were just agreeing that it's nice to see our city through "fresh" eyes. I know they have learned a lot, but so have I just observing them! They hit the ground running and have been excited, cooperative, flexible- even in the few downpours we've had this week- and have just kept on going! The 10 interns that have been here already for a week and will stay through July with us have been fabulous as well...such hard workers! The girls are already attached and it will be a tough day when they leave us at the end of July! They also brought us fun size Butterfingers and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups! How nice.

Just wanted to update you on how the week is going! They will be here till Tuesday, we will have 4 days to rest and get ready for the second group to arrive! :)
