Friday, Day 7.

Hello all, Kari again. Just wanted to give you a quick over view of what we did today. Most of us slept in this morning..and when I say sleep in I mean about 7:45/8:00. We did our usual routines during the day, while the four from Indiana went to the Citadelle. After nap time, we had a fun party celebrating one of the baby's first birthday. All the kids were dressed up and sat under the mango tree ready to devour the cake. They were all very excited and looked so cute! After the party some of the older kids played with a parachute..or maybe I should say they all stood underneath it while the volunteers lifted it up and down. They were all laughing and having a great time!  Somewhere during the day Abby and I got our hair done by one of the nannies. I think the only ones that don't have it done are Ellen, Shara, Megan, and Marilyn (and Ang :). Well, thats about all for today. Tomorrow we plan on going to the Citadelle; I'm pretty excited!

Hello from Brenda.  A few more jobs got done today: picking rock by the sidewalk that leads to the classroom and organizing and putting more supplies in the Depot.  A lot of cute clothes came in and were sorted into rubbermaids of various sizes.  Think the only job left at this point is to finish up giving the nannies their new scrub tops & flip flops.  The best part of my day was helping feed the kids supper, then drying, lotioning & diapering them to get them ready for bed.  They really seem to like getting lotioned.  Praise time was amazing.  Jen and one nanny got a BUNCH of us dancing.  The nannies thanked us over and over and we thanked them in return.  Great way to end the day!
