Hanging on the wall at Casa de Esperanza is a behavior chart for each child. If they behave all day, nothing gets put on their chart. If they don't behave, a mark goes on the chart. Marc initated a good behavior incentive. Two weeks ago, he said that everyone that could go two weeks without a Marc, he would treat to pizza. If anyone received only one mark, they would be allowed to work an hour in order to go. Of course, some kids are out the first or second day. When the incentive ended, Pamela and Linda were the only two to have no marks. Daniela and Brayan had only one. And you should have seen Daniela and Brayan out raking grass as it was cut yesterday.

We loaded the van about 11:30 this morning. Joselyn and Erica went as well. When we got to Pizza Hut, Brayan jokingly said he was not hungry and I said he could wait in the car. He changed his mind quickly.

We ordered three pizzas. They all got a soda. And Pizza Hut gives free refills. Everyone behaved well. That is nice, since they were there because of good behavior.

Pizza came and disappeared in a relatively short time. Since this was a treat, Marc ordered two sundae extremos. This is a large sundae, big enough for two or three people. The glass is put in the freezer, dipped in chocolate and rolled in nuts, thus the chocolate is on the outside of the glass and the ice cream in on the inside. The kids were excited about the sundaes.

The sundaes were inhaled almost as fast as the pizza.

It was fun watching the kids have fun.
