a weeks worth of work

I think the title should read a months worth of work!  The team here has put heart, soul and sweat into this week.  They have been spread out over four job sites: Kelly's land, the hospital site, the orphange and laying a basketball court in a neighborhood park.  Tonight they will be cooking out in that park and getting to know some of the neighbors.  As well, the deaf students will be coming to "hang out" with the team.

Speaking of the students:  they were in a parade today.  March is Special Education month here in Reynosa, MX.  A lot of the schools got together and walked from one large shopping center to another.  At the end of the parade there was a special ceremony.  The deaf kids signed a song that brought tears to the eyes of all of our teachers and the moms.  Of course, we teared up too.  They did an INCREDIBLE job!!!
