Sorry I missed you

I want to start by apologizing for not putting a blog up last week. I want to reiterate my appreciation to everyone that has been following my blog. It means the world to know that folks are at home praying over and joining me in my journey here in Atlanta.

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, but S.A.Y Yes! celebrated early. On Thursday we invited all the kids parents down for a time of fellowship and eating. We had three kids have family come. It was a wonderful time to share what is going on with the kids, and to get to know the families better. We had a wonderful meal of turkey, dressing, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, mash potatoes, and rolls. I can still taste it. All in all this was a great time of fellowship, and I really enjoyed getting to spend the time with the kids and their families.

As an incentive for good behavior the kids can earn an ice cream social by receiving marbles for behaving in various activities throughout the day. They earned the ice cream social this week. So not only did we celebrate Thanksgiving this weeks with the students, but we got to enjoy sundaes after eating dinner. It was awesome to see the kids reap the reward of good behavior. The after effect of all the sugar was a sight to see. Overall the day was very blessed. I am very blessed to be a part of such a wonderful group of kids.

Thanks again for reading.

Grace and Peace,
Adam
