Special meal
Thanks to a donor the kids were treated to a special meal before heading back to school tomorrow! They love chicken and chips with soda. First stop...picking up 40 quarter chickens and 40 orders of chips (we had the older boys walk to the soda kiosk for the soda!)...
Getting organized
What I wanted to do today: 1) Start video taping the children's home (to use when we visit the states) 2) Take still photos of the playground with kids actually playing on it (to be used as artwork in a church's cafe) What I did do today: 1) organized for a special...
