These Kids Are Crazy!

It never ceases to amaze me how happy and joyful these kids are despite of what they have been through. This obviously speaks to the awesome job Rock and all the orphanage staff do! There is always someone mad, upset or crying, but I have three at home and there is often two or three out of three upset and there is 50 kids or so here. I have to say, whoever is taking John Mary Lozard to WATCHOUT! This kid is a firecracker. He makes me laugh everytime I see him. Yesterday Kristen was handing out Blow Pop suckers that we brought down. With one small statement Sabrina gets all these kids to line up, they are very mindful, and they all get there suckers one by one. Well, John Mary Lozard (sp) comes back around in line and Kristen says with a smile, I gave you one already! He gives her a big grin, I look down and he had his sucker wrapped up and hidden in the bottom of his shirt! He is not a big kid, but he is into everything going on. We were playing soccer again yesterday and I went to kick the ball somewhat hard at the wall, unfortunately I kicked it a little too hard and it went up and over the wall and we looked and looked and looked for it and couldnt find it. I climbed up on the wall of a place next to the orphanage to see if it was in there, went to get down and when I did I pulled the top layer of cinder block down with me and fell right on my butt. Kristen had been recording the whole thing from the deck of the orphanage, but she had just stopped before that. Too bad, we could have made some money off of that! Anyway the next person that comes down, let me know and I will send you a soccer ball for the kids. There was a volleyball here, but not quite the same. The Myas are becoming mother hens. Im not sure which one, but one of them was feeding Guerna and Lovely last night at supper and earlier in the day was mopping up the water mess I made when I was getting the mob around me drinks. They are big helpers. Stephanie as we all know is a big helper too. Her and John Peter really take charge of the kids. Manuella and Gerlande are cute as can be and Guerline has grown very much too. Nancy looks 100 times better, her hair has thickened and even though she has that heat rash, she is doing very well. Im sure Kristen remembers more and I will get her to help me post more when we get time. Until then take care and rest easy, all the kids are doing great!
