This week has been going by especially fast! Partly because my kids have been particularly well-behaved and smiley, but also because I've been helping out with some other random tasks around the orphanage, which always makes the day go by a bit quicker. I helped out with the Toddler House photo day this morning (dressing the older kids up for their monthly photo shoot), and I also did some food and clothes sorting. I also helped out a little with the child sponsorship program; if the adoptive parents of a child want to, they can sponser the biological siblings (if any) of their child, which covers their school fees etc here in Haiti. Good stuff!
In other news, I have yet another cold, along with most of the other volunteers. That's one thing I hadn't considered; how fast colds and stuff can spread in an orphanage setting. Within just a few days, most of us adults and a good chunk of the kids are all sniffling away. At least I wasn't here the time chicken pox went through the entire nursery!
