Catching up!

Wow! Time flies! This month has been going fast. We stared out the month by taking a group of kids to the beach for Labour Day (the first day in May). We had fun, but got rained out in the end. Then some of my PC friends threw an engagement party for Luthur and I. We had so much fun! It was amazing to see how many people showed up to support us. This month is reading month at school, so I'm holding a creative writing workshop at the school on Fridays. The kids are enjoying writing, and are really creative when you let them be! This past week I was "up north" all week at the VAC meeting and MST. VAC is a group of us that get together with PC senior leadership to go through any issues our islands are having. MST is when you're a year into your service, all the volunteers get together and refresh. It was a great time and very much needed. I think one thing you don't see on PC blogs is how much of a struggle it is at times. In PC you have the highest of highs but also the lowest of lows. It was good to get together with other volunteers that are facing some of the same struggles you are!
