How exciting, Marie is gone for her first day of volunteer work at the college library.  I am so excited for her!  She will get to work 1 day a week for 3 hours that day.  I am hoping to stretch it out for about 2-3 months.  I was told they have a plan together to allow her to shadow and learn from each person up there, from the director to the janitor.  I am so thrilled God has blessed her with this opportunity.  I want all the kids when they turn 16 to volunteer for 2 summers before getting a "real" job.  Next year we are hoping to set up something in the church office.  I do hope that goes well also.  

  Marie wants to attend this college in 2 years, so this will get her more comfortable being up there.  She will also get to see students, professors and books that are most used.  She might be able to get a part-time job in the library when she is ready.  I do pray that she finds enjoyment and lots of valuable information while she trains.
