Friday, April 22nd

        Nothing new really happened today. We did the same morning routine, except most of the kids did not have school so we played with them a lot outside. One of the caregivers asked if we could give them math homework to do in the library, so they will stay busy while they do laundry and clean up. I wrote on the big chalk board in the front and wrote 20 problems for the younger kids (3+1, 4+0, etc.) and 20 problems for the older kids (in lower/middle school) to do. It is really sad to watch most of these kids struggle with adding their simple numbers together. After helping them and correcting their mistakes we played with them outside until lunch time. After lunch I helped Moses finish the bathroom plumbing in the transitional home (adding the shower) and then I played again with the kids until dinner time. Nothing new really happened today so there is not much to talk about. It is so sad to think that there are very few days left. In fact, there are only two full days and if we decide to go fishing on Sunday, then tomorrow is our last day! :( I already decided that I am going to go home with very little because I want to leave everything here for the kids. I already decided to give my speaker to Jaden, the 16 year old boy and my water bottle to Jaheem, a 12 year old boy. I wish I brought more to give away to the kids because I know a little goes a long way here.
