At last we started!!! The circle does exist.






After many months of planning and praying, last week we had our first math and reading circle, it was a blessing to see the kids all excited to start with our circle, which happens to be a parachute, that we use for our welcoming activity. We have the circle stretched on the floor, before we do anything, we welcome them to the circle and talk about the rules of the circle, like respecting others and congratulating others when they do something well, etc. After we do that we start playing with the parachute. Meanwhile the kids get there, after we punt the circle on the floor and sit on it, and we have a guest reader, and after we do a craft or an activity about reading comprehension.

I'm so happy that the first time, Moms that have actually receive a "Homes of Hope" home, were helping too.

It's a great blessing to see how God has been faithful.
