Back to Our Routine


July 26

The girls and I were pretty giggly this morning during mentor time with Gracie. She said she felt like she was the mom of teenage girls who just had a slumber party. I guess we were still kind of hyped up from our movie night and fun conversations last night. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

After mentor time, Jen went with Gracie to Talanga while I had English class with the girls. I was amazed at how much easier the girls were to handle with Karla not being there. I guess I had never really noticed that she was usually the one to start all the commotion. The girls were more compliant and well behaved and they didn’t complain about anything. I’m really hopeful that they will be able to start making progress.

When class was through, I went ahead and started on making sandwiches for the high school class. Once they were ready, Evelin and I headed out. Jen stayed behind because she wasn’t feeling too well.

Class with the high schoolers was good. They were still a little rowdy, but that’s nothing new. Haha! Franklin was actually participations today and he didn’t cause any trouble this time. I’ve slowly been seeing little glimpses of improvement each week and I hope he continues to grow.

The rest of the day was pretty laid back. We played with the kiddos here and there. We were going to go out to distribute more food, but Jen still wasn’t feeling well so we decided to postpone that for another day.
Another day gone by, but things have gotten a lot better.
