Lin has an easy way about her. She doesn't let little stuff get her all worked up. She keeps on working at a steady pace until all is done and has a calming manner. The children Lin works with are going through an incredible transition. Their parents have brought them to a new country in search of a better life. They are getting acquainted with our way of life, which is very different from that in Mexico. There is often confusion and uncertainty. Lin adds consistency where it is so desperately needed. She sets an example that the children can follow. 'You need to keep reaching for your goal, even though it isn't always easy.'
