Saturday night update

Construction Update:
Construction continues to go well on the team house.  Last Sunday Kyrk made a quick trip to place all the drain pipes and make sure everything was ready for the men to pour the top of the cistern. 
On Monday he will be going back up to mark out the full foundation of the team house and the foundations for the 2 outhouses.  If all goes well Kyrk will be going up sometime during the first 2 weeks of June to build the actual building.  
We are praising God that so far things are going very well with construction.

First Time experience:
This evening following supper there was a knock on our door.  It was one of our drivers and he shared with us that a man he knew from his home town was here with 2 newborn twins who's mother had died.  They were hoping to find someone to take the babies.  Wow, I know this type of thing happens too often in Haiti, but to know that these 2 tiny infants were orphaned and unwanted really hit me hard.  Thankfully we were able to refer them to a great orphanage close by who would be able to take the infants in and provide great care and hopefully adoption in the future. 
Join us in praying for this grieving family and for these 2 precious children.

Fun pictures of the kids:
Naomi, cutting our lawn.
 Jonathan loves football and today decided that he wanted to build a field goal post.  With Kyrk's help they built one and then had to play a little football together.
Rebekah and Robert enjoy climbing trees.

Anna was "reading" her Three Little Pigs" book to her bunny and bear.
