Video is finally live!

Hi families-

It has taken multiple video programs and various software to finally upload this video. I apologize for the late Valentine's day love from overseas!

And, here is a poem that I wrote and shared with your daughters the morning I left Antigua...

Oh, TTS21 - I'm going to miss you so...
You have so many adventures and surely you'll know
That even though I'm far up north in places you cannot see,
I'm following and loving each of you on this amazing journey.

Jen, your APD, so full of bravery,
And Emelia with her beautiful laugh - that girl is cray-zy :)
Eliza with her genlte heart - loving all the way,
and Anna with her courage has so much more to say.

Ladies - the magic that you share - it's truly par to none,
especially since this sparkle has only just begun.
And ladies, being here with you - so many ways to inspire,
classes filled with Latin Lit and mountain biking through barbed wire...

Ruth with her running and her super fast need for speed,
and Ana with her kind smile and lots of will to succeed.
Mikaela with her gentle laugh - we all love to hear her giggle,
and Caroline - when we say the word, "Steve" is sure to get a sniggle.

Your backwatchers and catchboxers and the jolly roger,
learning new skills and hauling big bags and having stuff with no frills.

Heather has you covered with her easy, fluid flow,
and Liz will tell you in Espanol all you need to know.
Kathryn has the gigiggles and is feeling, "so stressed out,"
and Maggie knows exactly what this adventure is all about.

And pretty Simone with a big open heart - enjoying all she sees,
and Abby giving great advice because she is doing this with her TTS expertise.
And lovely Annalise with her open heart and mind,
knowing her journey in Central America gives her all that she may find.

Beautiful ladies -
I'll miss you so - when you climb high and I seek snow.
But remember as your journey unfolds
All of the love we seek to uphold
In this world of chaos and of struggle
the light you can give with a smile and a snuggle.

Your community is strong and you have it in your hearts,
to change the world by fits and starts,
good luck, beautiful ladies,
and know that I am with you...

and I give you all a big hug and thank you.

Love,
Gennifre
