Field Trip!

So today we took the boys on a sweet field trip to the beach! We had SO much fun! First, we went to the villages and rounded up all of the boys. The girls and I rented this bus to get everyone there, which is super cheap. As soon as we arrived, all of the boys got into their swim gear, and ran for the ocean...pulling us along with them! As soon as we got into the water, we were attacked by the boys, pulling us under, and pulling us around. It was SUPER fun...the boys had such a blast! To top it all off, the weather was absolutely gorgeous.
We took almost all of the kids in our program...right from the little ones to the older ones. The little kids had the most fun I think...they LOVED playing in the sand, and completely covering themselves in it.



One of the little boys, Jose Manuel...he is a 9 year old boy that I have mentioned in other blogs...he came with us to the beach today. He LOVED it so much, and was also very clingy with me. By the way he was acting, it was clear that he was looking for that Motherly love that he lacks in his home life, although he does have a Mother. He just needed the attention so much, and he got it...he really had a care free day...which is our main goal of these beach days; to let the boys just have fun, relax, and have an awesome, worry free day where they can actually act like kids.
