546 to 666

666…in progress – Day XVIII

546 tonight becomes 666 with 24 new leaves for a total of 387. Today it was reported that the number of separated children for whom they have been not been able to find parents has now increased to 666. 129 of these children were under 5 at the time of their separation and included babes in arms. The sunny view of the week ahead I celebrated this morning is sadly cloudy once again…and my leaves for the children continues.

15 new leaves

The count for the presidency may be over but my count for the separated children, which began on October 22nd, continued today for a new total of 363.

546 day XVI – First leaf of the day…

…a day on which the expression “patience is a virtue” could not be more meaningful.
