monday

this is how big gets to spend an hour of his day every monday.

he and his classmates walk to the special needs school next door.

they play with the kids.

it is therapy for everyone involved.

in the beginning of the year everyone is a little skittish...

unfamiliar with their environment.

something new and different.

what i experienced today would make all of their momma's proud.

hand holding.

leading the kids from activity to activity.

showing them new concepts.

playing the same games over and over again.

all smiles.

everyone engaged.

they introduced me to their kids like they had known them for years.

told me if they were shy or how to get them to laugh.

i will be going back.

i might leave my camera at home...

so i can play too.
