Photo from the Children's Home

Oldest daughter sent this photo from the children’s home outside Capetown where she will be working until February.

She is working in the “baby house” and loves it there. It is, she says, absolute chaos, with 4 workers and 32 little ones, and when she’s done with her shift, she just wants to sleep.  But she still loves it.

Her internet connection is slower than Carla’s, if you can imagine that, and uploading photos is a nightmare, so this is the only full-sized picture we got. The rest are small and not very clear, but if she should manage to send more good ones, maybe I’ll post some more.

I can't imagine an internet connection slower than mine, but I sure loved seeing this picture. I just wanted to hug all three of those precious little babies.

I am so very proud of my niece.

What a wonderful work your daughter is doing. My niece is in Africa helping AIDS patients, developing ways for them to earn a living and support their families. I'm proud of her too. Great young women!

What precious babies! Only 4 workers for 32 little ones. I'd fall into bed at the end of the day, too! Blessings on your daughter's work...

That would be my dream job.

It's the absolute chaos part you like, right?

It'd be the little kids I'd like. The chaos I would tune out (and maybe contribute to).

Toddler is my favorite age, but 32 all at once might be a bit much for me. They sure are cute, though, aren't they?
