> THAT was the best therapy I've had in a long time. They are so cute and so excited. I look at them and their struggles and their parents and see their smiles, this is what the season is about. I'm glad I was reminded.I'm a college student and for a part time job, I work in after school day care(w/~50 kids).
These children are not special needs children but whenever I am feeling down and I go to work, they never fail to make me happy and forget my troubles. I love helping kids make simple little gifts that they can give to their parents for Christmas. They are always so excited that they can actually give something to their parents.
Kids are GREAT! I can't wait until I can have a few of my own.
