The people here at the casa are quite talented at making toys. The other day, Nancy, one of the caregivers, made two kites for the youngest kids to fly during the morning when the other kids are in school. Just some small branches from a palm tree and parts of a grocery bag for one and colored paper for the other. The kids loved it. It was the first day that I saw the new boy, Ever smile and he has been doing well ever since. He adjusted much faster than other kids in the past. Brian, who has only been walking a couple months, also had a great time running with the kite close behind.
These pictures were all taken in the ball field very close to our casa. We live just behind the yellow bus you can see in the first photo. Every afternoon, this field is filled with boys playing soccer, but in the mornings it is usually empty when the kids are in school.

Photo on the left is Nilda with Nicole. Misael is closest to her and Brian closer to the camera.

Photo on the right shows the kite way up in the air above the church. The half built building is the church where we go Friday and Sunday nights. They ran out of money for the 2nd story so it has been in this condition since I arrived almost 2 years ago.
