Yes, that happens when people sit behind a desk and not on the site. A lot of problems with this place.

Arriving at the center, Tony looked at me and shrugged his shoulders. The building looked like it was a place that the state had reprocessed. It needed a paint job; some broken windows should have been replaced. We knocked on the door and were greeted by an older woman dressed in a nurse uniform. I introduced myself and Tony; I told her why we were there. Evidently, the state forgot to tell her. Tony immediately contacted the person who requested our help on his phone. I listened as best as I co

You are probably right. She has done a lot of the work involving the kids.
-
I ask Brad if you can be one the board. What should I say is your contribution?
-
Not all of the kids got braces, only those that needed them.
-
It would be difficult for anyone top do this if they are not motivated to help;p the kids. A total devotion to the kids is necessary,. you can't buy that devotion.
-
have you noticed that with every important affair, food is a principal ingredient. I'll bet that the State thought what Brad did was easy. Nothing is easy without commitment
-
I don't think anyone has the motivation that Brad has
-
There is always a fear when the government gets involved. Money is the motivator. I'm sure Brad and Tony will sort this place out

You are absolutely correct

Talking to the captain, we decided we’d head toward the Caribbean. We had plenty of time to get back in time to watch the fireworks. I told the adults what we were going to do and that we wouldn’t have much time in port, but we could return after the fireworks. I didn’t tell the kids. They felt the ship moving but just thought it was natural. Fishing continued until one of the kids saw some land. “Dad, what’s that land there?” “Let’s go and ask Captain Rockford, Little John.” When

A new year always brings hope and in some cases tears as well. Brad and his cohorts in this mission of his, have high hopes for the new year.

Thanks, I knew you would explain the British version of Santa Claus. Well done, old chap.
-
What a wonderful memory. You have been blessed my friend.
-
Thanks, I'm glad you are enjoying this story
-
Yes they did. I wonder how many have never experienced Christmas. I know the kids from the East didn't and this would be something new for them
-
Yes Santa comes with different names depending on the country. I don't know how he is dressed but I don't think he is dressed like Santa. It seems to me he wears a long robe, maybe my English readers can clarify that

I realized I did post the same chapter twice. So I went back and corrected it. You read that chapter after I corrected it.

Christmas eve, the kids were excited, and dinner was exceptional. We had Santa Claus mashed potatoes, grilled chicken, and green beans sprinkled with fried onion rings. The kids were happy, particularly when they saw the dessert. I took one look at it and knew that Adam had made the dessert. When it was time for the dessert, Mario turned off the lights. I could barely see as Adam poured something over the ice cream, and then he lit it. Baked Alaska was for dessert. The kid’s eyes almost popped o

The kids will be into it no question

Thanks but I did make a mistake
-
You are right, there isn't anything like singing Christmas Carols especially in a group
-
The first time I posted it, it didn't show so I thought I made an error. and Posted again. Thanks for letting mer know this.

Thanks, in time they will forget some but never all

Returning to Sanctuary, life began to follow a pattern, breakfast, school, lunch, special activities, or free time followed by dinner. The kids seemed very happy. I spoke to Aaron about contacting a dentist to check the kids’ teeth. He suggested we contact the dental school at the University to have the graduating class do the examination. I thought that was a good idea and appointed Aaron as the contact person. Tony laughed, “Glad to see I’m not the only one to get assignments for opening my mo
