Jake got back from his Haiti trip the other day and he absolutely LOVED it! He stopped by to see the kids after school and told them he wants to go again in the spring and every year thereafter! He said there was one night when he, Jen Den and Mrs. Trainor were all talking about you and he was crying (and probably them too). He got some great pictures too. I know you would've gotten better pictures if you had your nice camera along last year. Your camera phone pictures were amazing in themselves.
Dad got a FB message from Heather Banet who went on the trip, thanking him/us for paying for Jake to go on the trip. She was gushing about how amazing Jake is and how they got to know more about you and how amazing you are through him. (We paid for Jake's trip in your memory. Since he decided to go on the trip last minute, we wanted to make it easier on him and his family to not have to worry about raising the money). Anyway, she said that your presence was definitely felt on the whole trip and there was even a student named "Kaden" that they kept calling "Hayden." I wish I could access her exact words because when Dad was reading them, it made me cry. I know you were there with Jake and the group. I am so glad you went on that trip last year.
I will probably write more about this after we hear from Jake ourselves. Love you so much and so proud of you EVERY DAY!
