yo nessicito mas dias!

It is the fourth day in Costa Rica and it is practically impossible for me to explain how I felt during the programs today

As many of my fellow students have already said we visited a villiage called la cuerpia today. The plan was to go and build beds for some of the families in desperate need of beds for their children. What I think is very interesting is the fact that we didnt take as much out of the building experience as we did the feelings that we had while interacting with the women and children of the community. It so easy to feel your heart brake (in both a good and bad way) when a child is smiling from ear to ear when you tell them that their new bed if finished.

Mom: A mother forced a present on me in gratitude for building a bed for her children, I thought if you

Dad: Many children told me that Math is there favorite class and two children showed me their report cards for english class (100% all A's in English for both of them) I said A's are important, i thought of you

Shana: The villiage is full of people fighting addiction and succeeding, the work that you do is so honorable and the village would thrive if you were there to support it

I am terribly humbled and glad to have experienced the life of such strong and respectful people
