Chapter 8

An hour later the lunches were all made and the children were starting to arrive. The church just happened to serve as the local daycare as well. They had about ten kids in the morning and then about another ten or so that came after school. There was one other woman that helped with the daycare. Her name was Sierra and she was in her mid thirties.

Sierra was just as kind as Grace was. When she first met me she immediately embraced me in a big hug. "Oh you poor thing. I'm so glad that Grace found you." I wasn't use to the kindness of these people. I was defensive at first but after a few hours I was getting use to it.

At about three the pastor arrived. He was a man in his forties. He was just as kind as Grace and Sierra. "Why hello. Who do we have here Grace?"

"Oh hello pastor Wilson. This is Addison. She is our new helper." Pastor Wilson reached out his hand to shake mine.

"Hello Addison."
