Day of Surprises :)

I had another wonderful day! I slept in a little bit, catching up on some much needed sleep. When I finished getting ready and headed downstairs, I found a whole bunch of gringos around much to my surprise. It turns out they were a group from Georgia coming to spend the morning with the kids! How nice to have some more hands around. Well, the surprises didn't stop there, since it was Friday, as always, there is parent visitation day. I had completely forgot but all of a sudden tons of Guatemalans came through the doors to see their babies. With the other group here and the parents, there was at least 1 person to every child, amazing. Just at lunch though, everyone left and it was again just the workers and I. We fed and changed all the kids and got them to bed, then we had some lunch of our own.

Today was a definitely a day of surprises because as we were eating lunch, two of the workers (Dora and Abigail) announced that it had been their birthday yesterday! Wow! And, thanks to the team birthday the week before we had some cake left over to celebrate with! How fun :)

Tonight we played Bingo as always and I lost every time, it just wasn't my day! But we had so much fun. I am thoroughly enjoying my time with the ladies and kids. It will be so hard to say goodbye... But we won't speak of that just yet.

The little one is growing and growing, she has gained a pound since she has been here


We were playing peek a boo!

Recognize this little face? It is Elizabeth! She looks so much better already
