casa update

The kids are in there second week of school. It is good to have them back in school but oh how I forgot how much work it is to get them up and ready and off to school, homework, and just keeping up with all of the meetings and payments and such in the school. It is enough to make your head hurt for sure. Thankfully there is always someone here to help with homework. That is my weakness. Half of the time I don't even understand their homework more less in spanish.
Rosy is on here second week in Manos Felizes. She is doing well. She loves getting to go and such but still is having a hard time following rules and listening. Next week she will start on her normal school schedule. Which means she will have longer days. She leaves here in the morning with Dorian at 5:45am and then catches the bus at 6:30am. The first two weeks of school she has been getting out at 11:30 which means she gets back here to the house about 1pm. Well next week she will get out of school at 1:30pm and Terri will pick her up at 2:30ish and then here to the house about 4pm. So it is going to be a long day for her. Maybe it will be a long enough day to wear her out that she will not have energy to find trouble!!! :)
Pamela is still on her crutches. She has almost gotten all of the stitches out. Until yesterday we noticed she had skin that was eatten away and looked to be infected. So Marc took her on in to the Dr. and the flap of skin had came undone and is was just raw skin showing. So there in the office the Dr. numbed her foot and stiched it back up. So now it is back to the healing process.
Lets hope it heals well and soon. She is having a hard time going to school with her crutches and such. It is a new school and she is just at that age where everything matters. She is dealing with it better but I am sure she is ready to be back to herself and run and play.
We have been working on taking a little 7 yr old girl who is at an all boys childrens home. She got placed in a home of about 80 boys. She luckly sleeps in the Tias room and the tia has taken her in but it is just not a healthly enviroment for her. So Marc has been working since Dec. with the Dir. of Jovenes n Camino to take this little girl. She also has a brother that is 6yr old so he will be coming to. Marc got a call today and it looks as if they are going to come tom to live at Casa. That is if all goes as planned. Pray for the process of them switching and coming into our family.
