Marni carrying new mattresses into rooms…
Bed Building, Day One
Sasha helping carry some headboard and footboards.
Lucia shows a boy how to place the slats.Others in the group are putting vinyl protectors on the mattresses and lining them in the hallway so that they’ll be ready to go as soon as the beds are assembled. The great “mommas” at the orphanage are very protective of their children. They’re afraid they might cut off a finger while screwing screws into the slats. So, we may or may not have been keeping a vigil at the door and we may or may not have been letting them drill with supervision. And the boys may or may not have been extra smiley today as they claimed their own beds for future “sweet sleep”.
I must go….our first rooms are finished and the children are anxious to come try them out. We’re explaining the purpose of their beds and praying with them. Good stuff. Good, good stuff.
A room full of brand new Sweet Sleep beds!Sweetly,
Jen]]>
