Figured out imagestation. Now I'll show you what DD did over Easter. I'm a proud Mom!

A couple of months ago (over Easter Vacation), my daughter Sarah went on a Mission Trip with the Youth Group at Church. They flew to San Diego and then drove to Mexico (the area called "MexiCali"). They camped in tents and endured hot temperatures and lousy food but they loved it. They put on a Vacation Bible School for the children there. Each day, as more people found out about the VBS, more and more children came. The children LOVED having the Youth there. Each day, as the bus pulled up the children would come running, calling the names of the teens and giving them gifts (like pictures that they drew, flowers, etc...). The entire experience was so humbling and uplifting for Sarah. She had a great time and wants to go back. We are so proud of Sarah. Here are a couple of pics of Sarah with the kids:

What a wonderful thing for your daughter to do! She looks like she is having a great time! How old is she?

Jeafl:
She is 16 years old.
It's so hard to believe, seems like she was born just yesterday. I know, I know, sounds SO cliche!

That is so awesome. I bet it is something that she will never forget!!!!!

That is so wonderful. You have every right to be proud. Not many girls that age are interested in doing things like that. You must have done something right during those growing up years.

You DD has got to also feel very proud of herself. She has touched so many peoples lives at such a young age. That is more than alot of older people can say.

AWSOME JOB!! Keep up with your Mission work.

Thank you Mom2Ashli. That is something every parent of a teen loves to hear.
Thanks everybody.
