Carlos Andres Urrutia

Maturity is an interesting concept to think through when dealing with boys from 9 to 18 years of age.  However, I feel as though a few of them stick out within this topic.  Urrutia, as they call him, is a 15 yr old who is more mature than his peers at the farm.  It's curious to see him fooling around with Steven and playing the older brother part, at times; while other moments he is involved with the children's church and plays a mentor role.  From the way that he interacts with the other boys, listens to instructions, and understands how things work at the farm, it is easy to see that he has been changed.  Urrutia, as they call him, is different and will continue to grow into a person who instills change and confidence.

But I still must ask myself, am I doing the same?
