The Mighty Quinn!


Remember the old Bob Dylan tune about Quinn the Eskimo? (i.e., "Come all without, come all within, You'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn") We welcomed our fourth boy this past Monday and (you guessed it!) his name is Quinn. He's 12 and transferred to us from another Thornwell cottage. We actually met Quinn on our very first visit to Thornwell back in August and were impressed with his diplomatic skills during the family conference we observed. Although Quinn moved to Georgia-Beatie with a less than stellar track record, we are pleased to say that not only has he had better days at school already, but he knows the system here and often steps in to help the other boys. Quinn has also picked up great skills at the pool table (thanks, Hank!). And, you can see from the picture that he's learned to smile. Keep up the good work, Quinn!
