Can you tell which school kids are from Casas Hogares? Of course you can't! That's the idea. Being on vacation this week has been great for our kids. They have been able to go to parks and on "paseos" (walks) and break the routine. Yesterday was a big get-together of both casas for a fun time together- both teenagers and little ones. Fortunately the transportation strike was called off and we didn't have to postpone it. Father Ron was in Lima for a diocesan meeting so he wasn't able to come over. Next time!
Right now we are awaiting word from a Rotary Club in the US. They may be able to help us out. We do seem to always have needs. Currently we need to install a hot water system at Sagrada Familia. Cold showers in the winter bring the risk of colds and runny noses. Not to mention they're no fun!
Also, we need "camarotes" in San Jose. Those are the rails on the bunk beds. That is something that has been long overlooked!
We do give thanks for all our wonderful sponsors whom we call "tio" and "tia" (uncle and aunt). We've heard that a number of friends remembered us especially with Mothers' Day offerings since they couldn't be here tu hug us themselves. Besos a todos from your "other" kids!!
