day 2

dear friends and family, we are all in our beds covered with bug nets for the second night of our journey. i am hoping tonight is a better sleep than the last due to dogs jumping over the property wall and fighting to eat the trash. it is 10 pm and we have all been awake since 5.30 am. it may sound like a long day but it is a rare day to wake up on the porch with a haitian sunrise and then to see the sunset on the roof while admiring a new garden planter box. we worked hard all morning and finished 2 4x8 ft planter boxes. there is one on the roof of the orphanage with a trap and drainage holes. he rest of the day was spent wih the children. praise God for his children and his presence with our team. we ended th day with a chaitic and surprising bucket drum group with ed kidder onguitar and most of the. hildren beating. buckets while singing praise songs!!! t Tomorrow we head for Balan to feed them beans and rice. may God have all he glory forver and ver amen.
