hello hello,
wow a month and a half already finished and only 4 and a half to go. i am now working at an orphanage called Orphilant Saint Jean de Deido. i am working from 9 to 1 with the young babies from 6 months to just under 2 years. i am still in the same house with the same family and that is conforting but i have farther to go to get to work. and it is more expensive to travel; a taxi to round point, 200 or 300 depending on the driver, then a bike, 100, to the orphanage then the same back. all is good though and i am actualy quite good at it now and i will get better. there are 9 babies and we wake them, change them, play with them then feed them change them again and put them down for a nap. then i go home and usualy stop at the school to visit and help. all is good. i think i forgot to mention that though the travel is expensive in francs it is about...2 dollars a day american lol ya. i believe that is all i have to report for now so if you have any questions post them and i will try to andswer the best i can. take care now. Emily
