This course is filled with challenges right from the first day. The good news is that by working together, we learn that we are able to earn success upon success. Challenging repertoire makes inspiring liturgy. Strangers turn into friends. Difficult situations lead to fresh insights and personal growth. Challenging moments are balanced by relaxed meal times (with food any parent would be proud to serve their family), non-threatening physical activities, high quality entertainment (Mary Poppins had magic) and time to just be . Our girls are great great great.

Today, after breakfast, lunch, and a couple of rehearsals, we went to see Mary Poppins. It was pretty hectic, trying to keep up with our leaders in
The actual show was pretty fun, with lots of singing and dancing (duh, it’s a musical), and I recognized songs from the movie. It was my first Broadway show in
After a long walk home, we had a snack in the recreation room, where we were told that we were switching rooms, in order to get to know girls from other floors. This was sort of a big hassle, trying to move our suitcases and pack very quickly to our new rooms. Luckily, I moved down a floor, so now I don’t have to climb as many stairs. Also, we had the opportunity to retrieve our cell phones from the office, and call home. This was very fun for me to check my text my messages and call my parents.
After dinner (which, again, was delicious; thanks Heidi!), we had a rehearsal, and went upstairs for compline. Then, we went to our new rooms, and went to bed at 10:15, after setting our alarm clocks for bright and early at 7 o’clock, for our morning exercise.
