Today was a wonderful day at the center with all 105
children!! We got a new little boy in
the Ducks this afternoon which brought the total number of children at the
center up to 105. A few of the children
are well enough to go home soon!
The construction team finished sanding and painting four
benches. The benches are now in the lobby of the center and will add room for
parents to sit and visit with their sweet babies when they come to visit them.
The Canaries are BUSY!! I have lost count, but there is
somewhere around 34 babies! That’s a lot
of bathing, diapering, feeding, and MORE diapering!! One of the afternoon
projects was to just go around and restock all the diaper changing tables with
more diapers and wipes and then to help fold a mountain of laundry!! The
canaries love to listen to music and play with a beach ball.
Emma, from the Leesburg group, finally got Edras to smile
for the first time since he’s been at the center. He’s been at the center for 5
days and finally smiled and laughed today! He is so cute and it was very
awesome to see him having such a fun time today!
Tonight we had our dinner in downtown Antigua at a wonderful
restaurant called La Peña de Sol.
Today has been a wonderful day! Tomorrow will be
a bittersweet day since it will be our last day at the center with the
children! It will be a day of many hugs and kisses and probably a few tears
too!!
Edras smiling...finally |
