Answered prayers, thank you!!!

 GREAT NEWS!

The girl that ran away from the orphanage came back last night. She was gone for 2 nights. She is safe and when I spoke with her, she appears to be fine.

Running away has created a major problem with her and will have consequences. It's a privilege to be in this private, Christian Church run orphanage. Here they feed you well, educate you and will even assist you through college if you choose that path. In a state run orphanage, you will be put out when you are 18. As I said in another post, the leaders must run a tight ship and not allow rebels or there will be mutiny.

The orphanage next door is called Casa Cuna and they take care of newborns up to age 5 or so. It's located on the same property and they just received a new baby! Boy is he cute! I don't know his name yet, but I know one of the leaders at the house and I'm sure she's excited to take care of the new one.

Here's a picture of a couple of the boys taking care of 2 of the 4 rabbits. I'm not sure what they will do with them, but my guess is that one day they will become food??? (not the boys!!!)

Here's one of the girls sweeping her section of the courtyard. There are 10 or so outside areas that different kids sweep and clean each morning and afternoons on the weekends. I'm always amazed that they have so much that collects in the courtyard each day that needs swept.

Standing on the top rung of a ladder here is normal. Fortunately, I'm not afraid. We continue to replace mosquito screens around the property.

Here is a stash of my snack food. I really wish the warnings that say "Excessive Calories", "Excessive Sodium" and "Excessive Sugars" were smaller. They made me feel so bad that I had to buy some "Natural" bars that had no warnings on it. My bet is that it tastes like cardboard, but we will see.
