Summer "Vacation"
Marhaba! It has been a month since my last post but it feels like a lifetime ago. We are soaking up the last days of summer vacation before some of the children get back from their families. A little over half our children are able to go home with their families during holiday breaks. The rest stay in the Hogar. With less children, we are able to have more excursions outside the house. This also gives the sisters time to visit their families or just take a few days of retreat in another part of the country. With multiple sisters traveling, this left us a little short handed but it was important for the sisters to rest after the year we've had. The children were still able to go the pool, park, and an ice cream parlor! We spent many evenings outside praying the rosary which for you may seem like a simple task but with the amount of children we normally have to feed, change and then move outside in their wheelchairs, it is quite time consuming. One of my favorite moments
