Did I mention we are hosting interns this summer?

We are so fortunate to be hosting not one, but two summer interns for 10 weeks.  These amazing girls (Stefany and Ilda) are from Mexico originally and both are from migrant farm working families.  They both attended Migrant and Seasonal Head Starts and have since gone on to college.  Stefany is working to become an Environmental lawyer and Ilda (who is also a Gates millenial scholar) will likely go into Education and Public Policy.  They are busy beavers working jobs and in their spare time hob knobbing with all the Washington elite.  They even got to meet the head of HUD who is assumed to be Hillary Clinton's running mate in the upcoming elections.  Not only are they brilliant, but they are also so kind and humble.  It really has been our pleasure having them.  When we finally got a free weekend with them we headed to the beach to enjoy some R&R and we had a side trip to Annapolis on the way home.  What a fun summer.
