Crazy month of celebrating

Its been a while since I blogged, mostly because its been so crazy around here. Y graduated from beauty school and is doing her 'practice' at a salon and C finished her first semester of university and passed all her classes. We took Y and some special invited guest out to dinner to celebrate and she was overly grateful for all of the beauty themed graduation gifts she received. 

We interviewed 2 new girls in the weeks before Christmas too. One has moved back in with her boyfriend and is no longer interested and the other, S, we are still waiting to hear from. She is 14 and is 3 months pregnant. Be praying for her and for guidance.

Then on Christmas day we were able to have both girls and babies along with some other friends over to our house on Christmas day. We opened presents, cooked sweet potato casserole, chicken, rice and gravy, and other goodies, and just spent the day playing board games and watching Christmas movies. J got a doll and stroller that she is now attached to. Anytime she leaves her house she has to bring her 'daughter' along:)

Then came the new year. Y and little J spent new years with us while C took W and visited some family out of town. We went to the river and spent the day swimming (have I mentioned I live in a beautiful country with both beaches and mountains with awesome rivers nearby).

So, as you can see, its been a crazy past few weeks here in La Ceiba:)
