Last night at circle time prayer, one little three year old said "Bless H (her big sister) and Mommy (her adoptive mother); I want to go to America!!" The photo shows the children just after their prayer time when each child says a prayer followed by an Amen said by all the children. The two in the front are posing of course.
Romana is back ... oh my, she has returned. She is an extremely busy woman and very abrupt. When Romana returned from her various errands (hospital and embassy), she tackled me about not following the baby posted schedule. I put up a great argument about why I should continue with Es as I had been doing. It did no good. I will now have S 3 nights per week night and be 'responsible' for Eu which means I physically take care of her during part of the day, but can hand her over to another house mother when I want to do something else. I must keep informed regarding everything about her ... feeding, pooping, sleeping, rash, etc.
S slept very well last night ... halleluia. He is a sweet 8 month old that looks and weighs like a 2 month old due to starvation. Eu is a good natured little one about 3 months old.
Next week Romana will change the whole schedule of responsibilities for the house mothers so we shall see what comes.
I am headed out to the porch to be available (while juggling baby) to assist Rachel with unruly students. Hopefully she won't need me. The kids are a handful, but she is adjusting to each new challenge.
Peace and joy, Judy
Rachel and Judy!
ReplyDeleteThese blogs are so awesome. I am so glad that things seem to be going well over in Ghana. I am so happy that you are over there following God's leading.
You are both in my prayers!
