the beginning of one-on-ones

i sent out an e-mail last week asking to meet with all the RAs from my new staff individually, in order to get to know them better. this week was the beginning of the one-on-ones. with six down, i'm excited for the ones to come, and thankful for the opportunity to work with these lovely people next year.
this week included:
swinging with rebecca
ice cream with chris
laughing with alyssa
cards, tea and dice with j
the triplets of belleville* with devan
*this was the most interesting cartoon i've seen, but not one i would necessarily want to watch again. but i suppose i can be thankful to have experienced it, since it is devan's favorite. and i do agree with devan that the grandma is "rad."
nursing talk with rebekah
with more to come!
