We just spent almost 10 hours with our teammates the Willis passing out gifts, cookies, and sodas to 79 plus kids and about 20 adults. A very long day but it was nice to be so busy. It's hard being away from family during this time of year and being so busy the last few days has been nice. We had each house (the kids live in houses with house parents) come one house at a time. Once they arrived Cindy took a picture of all the members of the house together and then a picture of each kid as they received their gift(s). After the pics they opened their gifts and then it was time to help with installing batteries, figuring out for them how their toys worked, cleaning up the mess from the gift openings, passing out the cookies and sodas for each house, saying good bye to that house and getting the presents out and under the tree for the next house.
The transition kids (teenagers) were the last group. It was good they were last because we were tired and they were very energetic and funny just being around them as they teased each other during the pictures.
The Willis and we had a good day, busy and tiring, but good.
Fue bueno día
