Michele and Lisa's Visit to COTP

I love having visitors from home.  I love getting to share COTP with them, getting to introduce them to the kids here, and getting to show them my life in Haiti.  I've been really blessed to have so many visitors during my time here.  Last week my friends Michele and Lisa came down to COTP.   Michele is a pediatrician and Lisa is a pediatric physical therapist, so their skills were definitely put to  good use here.  We did well child checks on all forty nine kids, therapy evals on twenty two of our kids with special needs, and began developmental screenings on all the kids as well.  With a few trips to the hospital and some teaching for the nursing staff mixed in, it's safe to say we had a full week.  It may have been a bit crazy, but I can't believe how much we were able to get accomplished in that short amount of time.  Thanks for blessing me and the kids with your gifts!  We hope you'll come back again soon!

Thanks for a great week!

Watching B figuring out how to walk was definitely the high point of my week
