New children!!!

This has been a busy time for mama Lyn - It seems as if we get new children every other day! I already lost count of how many children have come and gone in the last few months.

Our latest admission is a little 8 year old girl who is the size of a 4 year old. She's on permanent oxygen because of chronic lung disease and has been sick since 2004. We've placed her on ARV's and we will take her to a lung specialist to see what we can do for her. She also loves her food.

We have another little girl who arrived a week ago who is also 8 years old. She is such a sweet little girl. She is from one od the township that we work in. The school principal was the one who saw that she was sick and called the social worker who sent her to us. We will start her on her drugs and when she gets better she will go back to her family.

Look at the difference between the 2 girls they are both 8 years old...

Another cute little girl, she is 2 months old and due for her blood tests to see if she is HIV positive. She was found abandoned in a field the day after she was born.

Church camp!!!

It’s been a weekend of fun for the children. We had 22 children going on the Church camp this year - every year the group gets bigger. When the children got to the camp grounds, the first thing that they did was to take their cardboard boxes and started sliding down the hill. As always, this was the highlight of the camp

Sliding down the hill

A long drive!!

After a long school holiday, the children are back to school. Most of them really enjoyed staying at home and not having to do home work, but some children were getting bored so they were excited when the schools reopened.

Quiet week!!!

It's school holidays, not a lot happened this week...... But some of the children went away to visit Mama Lanie at the farm in Bronkerspruit. The children love to go to the farm because they get to see lots of animals and get to ride on a big tractor.
