June birthdays and Sunday outreach.

Okay 2nd quarter birthdays. Made this one a little more decorative.
Lim, Nite, Nyng, Weed, Vuthy, Chow, and Melor














Show below Nite Nyng and Weed




















































Lim Weed Vuthy and Chow. It is about the average smile and level of excitement I get from Vuthy went it comes to pictures. Maybe be it was excitement over load, a bit of birthday shock I suppose.

















Melor displays a different level of excitement when mom mentions his sexy hat.


















Mom just got back from the USA so the presents are a little better than normal.













Melor
























































































































Darow's little gift from his sponsor.

Out in the fields for some games. We got out the real bats and T-balls they did really well.
Ly was amazing he's 6 or 7 and he hit every ball I tossed. It was their first time with a small bat and small ball.
Rosa













Jon and Kyo


























Peaktra, Rachana and Boray













Lim, Kyo and Channee













Bun Heoun and Chang lay

















Te-a













Samrang













Couple days later Australia team came through again. It has been a while since we have seen them. So they did a lot of stuff including a water balloon fight.

Ra obviously was up to no good. Thankfully the camera kept me safe.


























2 more baby goats I think that makes 13.
Our one goat ate to much wet green grass and started to bloat. So I spent all day caring for him and a little research online. Saved him from a very serious problem. While trying to burp him the mother went into labor. I knew it was coming because she was acting weird. It was a lot of work. Vuthy and Chow made the job a little easier.
I do wish I would have know earlier that when a goat begins to bloat the gas comes out easier forward rather than backwards. I spent most of the morning cleaning out the wrong end, poor guy. So anyway here is our Beautiful brown baby boy goat. He is wonderfully soft and active.













So Sunday this month we went out to a different church to share and have fun. It was really good about 75 children came I think.































The girls opened with some songs.
Jon, Own, Kyo, Wut, and Rachana.













Tee was suppose to share but in the car we found out he did not prepare so older brother stepped up. Te-a did really well wasn't nervous and had a lot to say. Unfortunately he went a little long for his audience he will make a great preacher I think. He is very talented.






























Rachana also shared she did really well in the beginning I was very surprised, but then she started to wonder looking all over the place and losing her thoughts. Still she did well for having to speak in front of people for the first time. She is a pretty girl with a great smile. I have always liked Rachana because of her willingness to smile even when it is taught.































Spiritual Tate followed up with a wonderful prayer.


























Then it was outside for some great fun. The Frizzbee's Don Gordan brought continue to be the favorite. Soccer, Jump rope, and Sack races it is really easy to please them.


























Back inside to pass out some candy and say good by.













So what has been the fruit? The first time we did this last month our children loved it and wanted to keep doing it. We invited the older children from that village to attened our English class and some have started to come. Also the following Sunday when we did not return to the first village and we got an immedate responce from the children at school "when we where we coming back". It is hard to know where this will take the children. We have a lot of villages we can visit. It will be interesting to watch our children to see what they will want to do and which village they like and why. We hope that they will end up going out on their own in pairs and continue with the places they like most.

There are great needs in each place. There are children in each place that are so cute it is very hard to walk away from them becuase you want to take them home.
Most people stay something like that at some point, "oh you so cute I want to take you home". But I am in the possition to do just that. It is a weird place to be in where your wife says I want that one and it could be so easy to just take it home. All I would have to do is offer the family to take the child and they would most likely give them to us at a chance for them to have a better life. Where Ream often suggest we send Sam away to start school I do not want him to go. I do not want someone else raising my child.

It really is two different worlds we come from. Perhaps they are the better parent to love their child so much they give them away. I would probably prefer that Sam had no future if it ment giving him up. I wouuld prefer family to success.
What do you think? What kind of desision would you make?
Glad we don't have to make those desisions aren't we.

Thank you to the Summer Family for buy a little pool for Sam and Joe.
Also for the sorry game which has become Sams favorite to he just loves Spunge Bob.



























Well I have to go I was just told our pig is delivering. And she is not doing so well.
You can keep this project in prayer, the weird cold weather is difficult for the babies. We are taking steps to help them but we need God to give me wisdom on what to do and that they do not get sick.

We are on face book now pass us a long and we have a website just about to open.

Thanks for you attention.

March Birthday pitctures and some noodling

I found my missing photos on a different card.
Tonight I will share the Birthday party we had in March.
Own, Nune, Kyo, Peaktra, Rosa, Tate, and Tong











We played a few games. Since it was close to Easter we did a pass the egg relay race.

























































We also hid are Frisbee's and balls around the property rewards for finding them where different kinds of candy. The kids always like to play that. Also I tossed Frisbee's off the balcony people who caught the got candy. This is my favorite. I love watching these waves of children back and forth and all over the place.











This one was new I learned kind of from my step father. Putting some money in the balloons. They thought the contest was to pop a balloon until they realized there was money in them.










Joe will fit into or get into everything he can, buckets, laundry baskets, even moms desk drawer. That would have really scared her if he would have kept quiet.


Last was noodling day. Time to clean out the pong back in March. It is quite a lot of fun trying to catch the very last fish. The girls sit up top directing the boy where they saw the last fish move.




















Later on how ever some of the girls where in there as well.

OK tomorrow I will post the June birthday party so see you in a little while.
