What a few wonderful days we have had here! They have been busy and full of goodness. There has been a team in from Minnesota and they are building a swing set (the kids LOVE it already and it doesn't even have the swings yet), doing some painting, some cleaning, and playing with the kids. I have been able to spend some time with the babies during the last 2 days as well as time with the older kids and have just been enjoying every minute of it. We have had 2 more pizza parties; we finished the last one up tonight. The kids have loved the pizza and a movie. Today Joyce and a few others from church stopped by and it was good to see them for a few minutes. We chatted, they got a tour, and then they headed onto their next destination. Dorothy needed to go to the bank so Lindsay and I rode along and then she gave us a little tour on the way back home. We got to see the children's hospital, a school some of the kids go to, the U.S. Embassy, and more of Haiti. This afternoon I went out and sat in a chair while kids climbed on my lap and then went running off to play on the swingset. Lindsay and I did some laundry before we made pizzas and had a really good evening eating pizza with the older kids tonight. The team will be in again tomorrow to finish up the swing set and then we will be back to planning activities to do with the kids. I can't believe that we only have less than a week at Faith-Hope-Love Infant Rescue!
