They gave me a job in the office....

Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say, Rejoice. Be careful for nothing: but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4: 4, 6 & 7

Sometimes it hard to remember what we did in the morning! It was a long time ago....

So let me think.....or ask Natasha.....O ya, thats right! I got it.

Our morning was filled with baby's, a quick "corner" store run, going to see the older children, and a quick run to the office. But after lunch we went to package up greeting cards....

They are prints of paintings, they are very neat!

12 different designs.

Complete with a sticker!

Counting envelopes....

Packaged up and ready to go! We packaged up a lot! The orphanage uses them as a fundraiser.

So after packaging cards I was given the job of scanning adoption files on to the computer... How hard can it be really?? Well the first one was tiny and I worked out the kinks but the 2nd one was almost 200 papers! So first you sort the file, unstapling and start putting it through the scanner, but if anything gets messed up, you will probably have to start the whole thing again....Then staple them back together and try to put them back in order....then start saving it to the computer, it took 40 minuets just to save on the computor! But it was a good time to pray specifically for the children who's folders I was scanning, then I pulled out my Spanish notebook and studied! So after 2 hours of work, I had two folders done. O well tomorrow is another day....and I think I have the biggest one done!

So then I joined Natasha in the baby house to help finish up supper. I taught the tia, "Old McDonald had a farm". She is so much fun! She is learning a bunch of English phrases, they see me trying, so it makes them more willing to try too! I mess up all the time, so they don't have to feel bad! This morning when I had Natasha doing our "ABC sit-ups" and "123 push-ups" we had quite a crowd! Cheering Natasha on, and correcting me! So fortunately by the time it was my turn, most of them had left, because its really hard to concentrate on Spanish while your doing push-ups! But its fun, and its working because I counted to 100 today, and I know the whole alphabet! So now on to colors and day's of the week...by the time I get home, at least I will know the basics! I needed a stapler and I had some trouble with the scanner while I was at the office and I was able to talk through it all! God does do miracles!! Don't ever doubt it! It really wears you out trying to learn and understand another language! So I think I'm going to crash soon.....no more Spanish for tonight!
