                                          Heidy and Andres in our hotel, Casa Blanca, in Neiva!

Highlights!

 - The people here at CDA are amazing.  They have invited Heidy and Andres to do school with the students here and the teacher is even picking out work specifically for each of them.  This morning they invited me to their staff devotion time.  I understood not a word....  but I understood a lot...  if you know what I mean!

- Each day has been filled with joy and fun for Heidy and Andres.  Of course, there are some challenges as well, but staying here I have time to be patient, pray and shepherd.  I can't say that it has always been easy... but it has been very good.

- Here at the CDA home for girls they eat dinner around 6:30pm and the children are in bed by 8:00pm.  I want to emphasize IN BED because the place it pitch black and there is not a peep!

- This morning, I walked over to the the kitchen at about 5:45 am.  To my surprise happy little girls, all in school uniforms had already eaten breakfast and were playing with kited while waiting to go to school!

- I am very, very close to getting everyone at home ready for school and wrapping up detail so they don't fall through the cracks.  It  has been much, much more than I bargained for.

-Carol is certainly a gift from the Lord for our family.  I keep her in the loop on all the details and she seems to be on top of it all.  Often at night, on skype, I will remind the children of something and they say:  "Mrs. Leland already helped us with that!"
