We finished taking pictures of all the 0 to grade 2 kids. They have preschool here and there are many very cute 2 year olds. We must have taken close to 100 photos this morning.
The picture taking took most of the morning, so we had lunch and started to get organized to go to the beach after lunch. Nicole became the interpreter for Mme Luciano in the gift shop, so we didn't start for the beach until 2:30pm. While I was waiting I took 15 minutes to sit in the sun to get a tan. I wanted to make sure I could tell people when I get back that I took time to suntan. I actually timed it and it was very difficult - smoking hot. As I sat there I had three different Haitian come ask me why I was punishing myself.
The last trip to the beach was good. We bought 3 pepsi and shared them as we sat on the beach and watched to water wash up. We will miss this part of Haiti.
Tonight and actually the last few evenings Nicole and I have spent some time thinking about re-entering back to our life in Canada. We already have our weekend booked and Noah's Birthday is the following weekend. Then Christmas blessings!
Please pray for patience, guidance and discernment as we make our way home. We both want our time here in Haiti to renew our minds and our spirits and our lives. We look forward to all God has for our family!
Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
See you soon!!!
Wow. Already. Please don't stop blogging! Keep on talking to us about all that you've experienced and learned, and about how life is different (and the same) after Haiti. Pat and I are really loving this opportunity to be a part of your journey.
ReplyDeleteDitto... I would love to hear about your experiences back in Canada and how you see things differently now!
ReplyDeleteAnd you'll have snow when you arrive... just like you ordered :)
