Big few days...

umm i forget where i left off... however this week has been huge thank-you to everyone for all your support and love it means that this project has been able to be up and running this week... bathroom reno has begun and the clearing of the soccer field started yesterday... alot of blisters and cut all over hands and feet....but so many people turned up and it was great all the kids got out there and did the best they could.... few snakes alot of spiders, snails and bugs cover in dirt and sweat however we are well on our way now.....!!!! just had a day out with the kids we teach at social at night.... we took them for lunch and the movies we saw Rio in vietnamese... today was great to get them out and give them abit but now it has put more thought in my head!!! Our little nam Viet who we take on most of our weekends just got a sponser for a nice orphange that is private run and offers alot more in the way of schooling... however he said yesterday that he doesn't want to go because no family.. there is 3 other children 2 girls and a boy all aged between 8 and 14 and to break them up would be a shame.. it would be breaking a family.. they have been each others family for the time they are in social and been the strength for each other... we worked it out that it would be $40 a month for 5 years for one child... Fran (volunteer) is looking into maybe supporting one and once I am working again i know i can also support one... mark feels the same way... i know i can't save everyone of these children and i have done alot but every day i give alittle bit more of my heart and it is just heart breaking to see these children go through what they do... today i feel like i dont have much left in me but i am waiting for that little reward to get me through....
untill next time and sorry i will be more upbeat!!!! few loads of washing a beer and bed today i think..
to all back home happy easter weekend!!!!!!!!! xxxxxxx
