Even if it doesn't seem like it now, I know that they will always remember your caring and generosity. So often people prefer to have a blind eye towards things like this because it's easier. I have such admiration for what you're doing.

I really admire that.<br /><br />I think it is so important for teachers to realize that students have lives outside of the school. We can't even begin to understand who they are without understanding where they come from.

Those kids are lucky to have you.Alliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18420476898132383974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1121646009572423296.post-58166203255736767762012-01-28T16:52:37.858-05:002012-01-28T16:52:37.858-05:00I thought teachers did home visits only in the mov...I thought teachers did home visits only in the movies, LOL!
