Update from Izumi at Semillas de Amor:
June 8, 2012
Friday was a day to celebrate a new success. In the past, giving the children food was a chaotic and a highly disordered process. As the children would arrive, they would frantically hand us their bowls as if they were afraid that if they did not act quickly enough, they would not receive their fair share. We, as interns, decided that we could begin improvement on this part of our day at Nueva Colombia. To accomplish some kind of order, we established a lunch line in which each child would hand us their plate one by one and we would serve their food. It was amazing how much more efficiently we were able to distribute the food. The children also ate more quietly. Even though there are still some things to work through, this definitely has been a great triumph with the kids.
