Day 6

Sorry for such  delay on the blogs everyone! We had troubles ith the internet some days and others we just had too busy of a day to get it done. Well on Monday January 8 we woke up at the same time as always, 7am, and went down for breakfast and then left for work. Today we met some kids as they were gone from school for their holidays the week before. Some of the kids told us they wanted us to take them to Canada and it was a little bit hard to say no to them considering what their living conditions are and also how quickly we fell in love with them. We got lots of work done today, moved tons of wet dirt into the holes around the foundation and leveled out the pile of dirt that was still in the middle of the room. Once that was completed we started laying more blocks for the walls. Some of us did other jobs like taking nails out of the wood, pointing etc. When we got home we all took showers and had dinner after which we went upstairs to our living room and watched another RC Sproul video. We then played some games and others coloured and some also just chatted and caught up with family and friends back at home.
