DATE: JANUARY 2, 2021
 
HEAVY RAINS WRAP UP 2020
 
Rain means our corn/bean fields will grow, PTL, but it also crushed our hopes for the chil­dren’s feast on Dec. 31st. So Bush Bun­ny and staff pulled out the reserve plan by load­ing the toys, cook­ies, and indi­vid­ual koolade bot­tles into my ful­ly cov­ered King Cab.
 
When the rain paused at 7 a.m., off we went to deliv­er the good­ies house to house. Sun­shine fil­tered through the clouds just long enough to get fam­i­ly pho­tos of all 6 chil­dren’s homes. Each house with small chil­dren received a minia­ture soc­cer ball so the under 3‑year-olds can have fun at home. 
 

Beau­ti­ful “Gazelle House” with their gifts.
 

Our pre­cious Ostrich House fam­i­ly.
 
As I was get­ting the “Rab­bit” fam­i­ly of Vic­to­ry House lined up for their pho­to, the chil­dren’s hands were full hold­ing their presents (and they weren’t let­ting go). Thir­ty-month-old Jesuino tried to hold his gifts AND THE NEW BALL, but could­n’t man­age it. The ball fell to the ground, so I placed it at his feet and stepped back­wards to take the pho­to. Next sec­ond, I was hit full body with that ball as Jesuino rared back with all his might, kick­ing the ball per­fect­ly to his “goal”.
 
THE KIDS ROARED WITH LAUGHTER, for Mama Bren­da for­got that this lit­tle one can’t resist kick­ing ANY BALL with­in his reach.
Solu­tion: remove his koolade bot­tle so he could hold the ball. His face is one of total deter­mi­na­tion, dar­ing any­one to take the ball away. Our future soc­cer star for sure!

The Lion House kids!
 
See­ing the smil­ing faces of our chil­dren as we gave out gifts house to house, brought great joy to all of of our staff. Next week, we hope to have our “pic­nic” with the kids. Just need a morn­ing of sun­shine and dry ground as it is total­ly an out­door affair.

For some of our Zebra House kids it was their 1st toy ever!
 
THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU WHO GAVE SPECIAL LOVE GIFTS SO OUR CHILDREN COULD HAVE SPECIAL TREATS THIS YEAR.
 
HAPPY 2021 TO YOU ALL!
 
STAY CLOSE TO THE LORD, AND NEVER DOUBT HIS WORD.  IT IS FOOD FOR YOUR SPIRIT AND ENCOURAGMENT TO YOUR MIND. HE TRULY IS COMING SOON.
