Our last week, a memorable week.

Let me share with you our last week...

On Monday Andy picked up three people from Virginia who came to Haiti to build cubbies / pigeonholes for the kids in the orphanage. They came straight to one of my micro-enterprise groups in Siloe, this was to take a look at their artisan, which they proudly presented.

Hitting traffic every day.

That's what I call team work. Everybody wants to have a go.

From pieces to....

... the three final cubbies.

The kids were so proud and so over the moon.

Some even marked and claimed already 'their' hole.

In the evenings we would talk or play cards.

Amanda won.

Two days would leave me at home, to do some SHG work, but especially to cook for the team.

Pizza, yummy, that gave them back their strength for next day.

Burgers, just right for hungry souls.

The last evening we went all out for dinner. Andy got very sick. I was so worried about him. Our friend needed to drop the team off at the airport, because Andy didn't have any strength to drive. The same day the team left, I had the vet scheduled in our home.

Little girl had a big operation.

For him it was much easier.

After they woke up, they wobbled around unsure of their footing. It took them almost 2 days to recover, so I had to care for three sick ones the whole weekend. I can tell you, I am glad a new week has started. Everybody is well now. May God bless you with strength for your week which has just started.
