New home for Hannah and Jean-Mari

Hannah and Jean-Mari moved out of the kids home yesterday and in with a host family.  Its been a hassle since they arrived here about a month ago… they were supposed to be living with a host family from the start.  Its not easy staying at the kids home, so I’m pleased and surprised they havent complained about it at all.

Massimo left on Wednesday.  He has returned to Italy.  One of the things he had arranged to do with his time here was replace the windows at the kids home.  They were just meshing to protect from bugs, but there was no way to keep the wind out.  Massimo paid to put in glass windows with meshing so they are still protected from the bugs when the windows are open.  The window people came and measured all the windows twice, but when they brought all the new windows, none of them fit!  So they took them all away and re-made them.  Two days before Massimo left, they installed the new windows.  They make quite a difference.  The weather this past week has been quite cold, so its a good time to have windows that can be closed.

The kids are back into the routine of school now.
I’ve been sick this week with a fever and sweaty, shivery, sleepless nights.  I got some medicine this morning so I’m hoping to sleep the whole night tonight.
Church with the kids in the morning.

    Hi Rob
    Sorry to hear of your sickness. May the Lord comfort, strengthen and heal you – thank you Dear Lord. Does someone feed/water you at this time?
    So glad to hear Massimo got to see the windows installed, and glad they effective.
    How was church with the kids today? What songs did you sing? Our kids at kbc enjoyed their worship time today – entusiastic.
    Bye for now, Jo

    I just woke up on Sunday morning. I only woke up once during the night, and I managed to sleep until 8am! I have been drinking orange juice, eating raisins and lots of fruit, but havent had an appetite to eat much else. Today feels like it might be another warm day thankfully. Nice to hear from you Jo.
