Pics from "the Trail"







 The clothes he is wearing are not his.  They only had us pack underwear.  We were given his clothes that day as they had outfitted him with everything else.  

We talked with his counselor today and she let us know the letter he wrote was definitely out of anger.  Probably trying to engage us in conflict one more time.  

She is hoping he can become somewhat of a leader among his group soon or eventually as he has that capability.  

She told us about some conversations she had with him that resembled many we have had with him as well.  Like the one where he just wants to be left alone to be himself.  When asked "who is that?"  He says he doesn't really know yet.  Of course he doesn't, he's a young 14 years old and we are hoping this can be a time of searching and finding for him in a safe environment where he can grow and discover.
