Arts After School Memories

My After School volunteer program has ended for the year...and I must say I was feeling very bittersweet. Practically every Friday I didn't feel like going, but after I got those great big higs from the children I felt a renewed sense of energy. The children made me smile, laugh and feel like I was making a difference. I'm really going to miss the program next year and I hope that I find a similarly rewarding program in Baltimore.

This is dedicated to my girls at Arts After School...one week they came up with this poem and I thought it was so cute. Que'Diara and Kala really made my day...I will never forget any of the children from Arts After School...I hope my impact in their lives was a major as the impact they had in mine.

To my girls...

"Today is good day
Cuz we sing and we play
Us three (Que'Diara, Kala and Z) we love to be all around living free
Hey, Hey Alright Ok!"
