Yesterday was our first meeting with the residents of the Mayflower. It was excellent! I loved talking to Arlene about her life, where she grew up, and what she likes to do now. She loves art and writing and I cannot wait to see some of her work! I also enjoyed meeting her husband, Bernie, who is Jenny's community partner.
It was a great experience to get to exchange photographs. Sharing my book was a lot of fun, and seeing the photo that Arlene chose to share, and hearing the stories that went along with it, made me excited for the future of what our partnership through this class holds. I cannot wait to create a book with her. She also mentioned that she had already created a photo book about her family, and I hope I get to see it!
