That’s the indication I got yesterday while at C4KK. Daniel hadn’t gone to school yet and he was wandering around the house waiting to be taken to school…just like other kids. Ann was scurrying around trying to get his school stuff prepared…just like other moms. You see? It’s just like your home. The biggest difference is that this is new to these kids. They’ve never had a stable home life, a place where they can claim “this is where I will live”. Watching the kids come home from school and living in this space made my heart swell with thanks. Thanks to God for allowing me the opportunity to see a tiny portion of His plan unfold for these kids. I know it’s just the beginning but oh what a beginning He has given these kids!
Now that I’ve gotten the mushy stuff written, here are some updates on construction.
Beginning stages of wiring for electricity!
The upper portion of the tank stand is being painted while the floor is prepped for pouring. There is another section to the tank stand yet to come.
2 new beds were delivered (more to come) and the boys quickly claimed the new beds for themselves before the other boys arrive! Not to worry though, everyone will get a new, sturdy bed soon...the old ones are very unstable.
Roman pounds down larger stone on the driveway then a top layer will be added for a smoother, mud-free surface.
The floor is poured (here's half of it done). This will be Romans room and then a small shelter for the night watchman to get in out of the rain.
Of course I had to leave our mark!
Ann is loving her new spacious kitchen and this wonderful work station!
just a random bee 🙂
Even though construction continues the kids don’t care as long as they are living here! I know Ann feels the same because while I was talking with her (before taking her picture) she just couldn’t express how happy she is. Remember, before she was living, sleeping, cooking all in one 10×10 room and sharing that with 2 girls! This is certainly a blessing for her and the kids and for me to have the honor of watching God’s love pour out on them in a way they never really expected.
