there are about a million ways that i am proud of my wife but today i feel especially proud of her.  when amy started going to reunion she immediately became involved with sojourn and their partner ministry at quincy street (about a mile from our house).  it's been great to hear, and now see, her become part of the team doing ministry there, build relationships with the kids in the neighborhood, and, over the last couple of weeks, start tutoring Destiny.

last year she also had the opportunity to connect some fellow physical therapy students from BU with quincy street.  they've had a play day and also a gift program last christmas.  today she was able to bring eight students down to the neighborhood for another play day.  it was so much fun watching everyone interact with the kids (16 today, which is a great turnout), and it was wonderful to see the kids having so much fun.  

i am so proud of amy for introducing her classmates (many of whom could go through the whole program without ever having to think about dorchester, let alone visit it) to this neighborhood.  and, i am grateful that these students have made the effort to come down on these occasions and really get into playing with the kids.  

way to go amy!

ps. i am not so proud of myself for bringing my camera with no batteries, which means no pictures...dang!!!
