A fast start!

ByErin

The new group has arrived! We have had a quick start and everyone is happy! We have had a great time getting to work and diving right in. Part of us have been building the playground and Sherry and Jan have been busy busy working with the “littles”. Today Sherry and Jan gave baths to all 50 little ones! They have cooked snack and lunch for 2 days. Both ladies have had to work with what we have and the tools aren’t what those cooks are a custom to!! Knives with no handles were tuff to manage, but they did!
The playground has proved to be harder than expected, but if any team can tackle the challenge it’s this one! We have gone through plan A, B and even Q, but we are making progress! I’m sorry this is short, but we really have been busy. We are all dirty and tired when the days are over. Making plans and getting right down to business each day. I promise to update properly soon.
