first week!!

The first week went really well! Even though there were a lot of challenges such as, whining, name calling, and challenges within the kids' lives that came out at the end of the week, I thought we were able to work as a whole and help each other to solve all of these issues.  From the stories the kids tell you about their past, you really can see how much they are hurting inside, but also trying to cover it up on the outside.  I'm having a great time working with all the kids and I'm looking forward to the second week!
