Today was a MUCH better day. M-son walked a few steps multiple times. It was very very encouraging.

So on my last blog i talked about g-baby getting switched out as one of my kids. My new girls name is "tutu" I was a little hesitant about it, because i did not like the fact that G-baby was not mine anymore, but i am absolutely falling in love with tutu. I have had her for about a week now, and the reason i have her and not G-baby is because she just arrived to the orphanage and needs some extra attention and love. I don’t know her story completely, but this is what I do know. She was found under a tree by a missionary family, with burns all over her legs and stomach. They were third degree burns, and she should have been dead, however she was FILLED with maggots and that is what kept her alive. The maggots caused the burns to not be infected. The family took her in and then took her to GLA so she could be further treated. Her burns look 100 times better now, and she is doing really good. She got the burns from her grandpa dropping a pot of boiling water on her. She was the one for may birthdays who freaked out when they lit the candles. We do not know her age, but I am guessing she is 4.. much older than my other kids. She can talk, which it is different having a kid who can talk (she speaks creole of coarse) but with the little I have learned we are able to kinda communicate, and I wish I could just explain her personality to yall. She walks into a room and say “BONJOUR!!” so everyone knows she is there. She copies everything I do, from the way I cough, stand, ect. Its so funny, she is so sassy! She is also potty trained, and it took a while for me to figure out what “bathroom” means until we had a little accident, but know we know how to communicate that. ☺ I was a little hesitant when they told me I was going to be working with her, because I did not want to leave g-baby, and she is super hyper, but I have COMPLETELY fallen in love with her. Since she is old enough I sometimes get her out for more than an hour and let her stay up there while I have other babies, so she does not have to be in the ICU room or nursery. Please be praying that the Lord continues to heal her wounds and are relationship continues to grow.

Last night us volunteers had our first annual talent show. It was SO funny. Lets just say we are a bunch of nontalented people, but we all laughed soo hard.

FUNNY STORY: ok so there is a girl here named Holly, and a bunch of us girls were taking our kids on a walk/ Well Holly really wanted to take a small baby so she could use a carrier (the ones that strap to you and the baby is in your front). So she puts the baby in, and we were like holly, turn the baby so he can face the outside, and she was like no no its better for my back if it faces me and the baby is more secure.. so we were like okay… then she finally got the stap on and was like, “This is a life saver!! My hands are free and I am holding a baby!” She was SSOoo excited about this dang carrier. Anyways, we did not even make it outside, and this baby totally starts blowing chunks IT was HILARIOUS! Keep in mind the baby was facing towards here. Haha it was totally strapped to her and he did not spit up, he was projectile vomiting over and over onto her. Holly is gagging the whole time and we are just dying laughing. SHe could not get the baby out of the holder, so she was helplessly being vomitted on. it was GREAT. Some life changer.. I have learned that being at an orphanage you get to tell many funny stories like that ☺

Ok well its Friday, so I am off to bible study then to be with my babies! LOVE YAL SO MUCH AND MISS YALLLL!
