We have  26 children going to different Schools this year so we were in desperate need for a driver, interviewing the drivers was quite a challenge!  When we interviewed the drivers we were so impressed with them but most of them have code 10 (well if you live in South Africa you will understand that most of the people who have a code 10 can’t drive, don’t ask me how they got their licences J) and when they mentioned that they have a code 10 we knew that they probably can’t drive  but we would interview them anyway,  and part of the interview would be to drive around the block with  Uncle Philly – our driver, would go with them to see if they could drive and there were times when Uncle Philly would walk into the office with his big eyes asking are you sure that these people have a licence? One person even rode our clutch so badly that after the interview we had to take our car for a service J. Ooh.. what fun!!!

Last week when I went to Church, the pastor said that God uses every experience for good whether good or bad and that is so true for us,  Mama Vivian is one of these people. Because Mama Viv had the experience of cooking and feeding a large family, the Lord equipped her to teach the ladies how to cook. The Lord had a plan for Mama Viv, and teaching the ladies new ideas for meals was part of that plan.  The children have been flagged as being at risk for high cholesterol and we have to change their whole eating plan, we know it’s going to be an uphill battle but the ladies are determined to learn and help the children.  When we told the children that we are changing their eating plan they were not happy and we had to explain this was for their own good.  So from now on it will be salads and veggies and not lots of sweets L.
 
 

 
Viv teaching the ladies how to make healthy meal, they all loved it, now we have to wait and see if the children like it tooJ.
