They had moved into their brand new home on Saturday, and I called on a Monday, in desperate need of a safe place to stay for a few days. The few days turned into a year. I was so exhausted and barely felt sane after what I'd been through. It was an amazing experience, and I will always be grateful to how loosely this family held on to their space to make space for five more people.

I'm from Philly, I went to Liberti, and I've moved to Biloxi for a year of volunteering. Long story really short, stumbling across this blog was probably the best thing I've done all day.

Thanks for sharing with us. I'm learning more and more about how my students can teach me all sorts of things, too. I really love what you have to say, Tricia. Thanks for sharing with us.
