Well, we got some graduations today

3 kids we worked with throughout school in what is called a "dreamers" mentoring program.

Honestly, we weren't too sure a couple of them would stumble through. But all three will be graduating and going to college.
One is aiming for med school. One wants to return to Germany where he visited last summer. The other isn't sure yet.

So many good memories from these kids.

I am telling you, folks, if you have a chance to mentor or tutor do it. Quite rewarding.
