As I have been thinking about what I could share on the blog, a ton of memories and experiences have flooded my memory.  I have been going to the club since January of last year and I have absolutely loved it.  Over the last 14 months I have come to know and love the kids at the club.  One of the most special experiences I have had was with a little boy named Luis.  One day we went on a field trip to the BYU bowling alley.  As I was bowling with the kids, many of the little ones were struggling just to roll the ball.  Most of their balls ended up in the gutter.  Some of the kids expressed frustration over this, however, Luis had a good perspective.  After he bowled a bowl directly into the gutter he turned around and said to me, "It's alright, I still get a free soda".  This experience and many others have shown me how these small children can offer us insights examples of Christlike attributes.  Just as I learned from the optimism of Luis, I know all the kids can teach me about Christ.
