...that's Little People! I love having them around!
Yesterday we had a young mother come to the clinic in labor with her first child. She said she was from Port-au-Prince and came to have her baby here! Well, we were surprised she came all the way here for that, but very happy to have her. She did well for her first time, and had a 7lb 5oz, chubby faced little girl!
Great job, Rho! And Mis Katie, why aren't you in this picture? She was there too, but behind the camara trying to show a dear old lady how to take a picture for all of us, but we only got this one... We were happy to have Mrs. Hostetler here to help with this delivery! She got quite an arm work-out, faithfully massaging the mother's back to help ease the back labor pain she was having, which she really appreciated. The lady on the right had said she was the girls' mother, but later said she was her Aunt. Either way, she did a good job helping hold the mother's hand all through labor and was very excited about the baby! :)

This beautiful baby girl, named Annadine, is a 3lb. 12oz preemie that's been coming for check-ups here. It's amazing to see how tiny, yet so perfectly formed she is! It's hard to see how small she really is in her big onesy, but we didn't have any clothes small enough to fit her. :)
Double the joy! The twins, Stina and Shadina, looking just like porcelain dolls. We usually get to see them at least once a week at church, and they get bigger all the time! And then...
this little guy! What would we do without cheery little faces like this around? This is another picture taken today of the little boy we had sent out with Samuel awhile back. He was sure hamming it up, smiling and cooing at me! Just happy to be alive...
Hope this brightens your day too. :)
