Some of my expectations were accurate of course, it was very poor looking, there were win- dows that were cracked and broken, trash scattered everywhere you turned, and everything seemed to be withering, all the doors, stairs, etc..

It was then, when I saw these beautiful, innocent children laugh- ing as they threw snow balls at each other, that I could take a sigh of relief. Despite the sadness, and the living con- ditions, there was laughter, which meant there was hope.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=510524714&amp;ref=sgm\" target=\"_blank\">Connect with Tara on FaceBook<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/test.fromscarlet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/support_letter.pdf\">Tara Thompson&#8217;s support letter<\/a>. \u00a0It is an awesome letter and so inspiring.
