The Children at IDADEE

We had promised to post some photos of the kids, and have finally gotten those taken.  They are not used to cameras and were not sure they wanted their photos taken.  

Here they are:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The children are listed with their birth dates.  You will notice that Claude has a question mark...we are not sure of his background or birthday.  We are guessing at his age.

A typical day is varied a lot.  Claude is the most challenging at this point.  He wakes very early, and wants someone to hold him constantly.  The rest of the children have many different "quirks".   But as with most 2 and 3 year olds, they are ACTIVE.  A gate has been made for the porch, so the children cannot fall down the steps.  With the huge porch, they have a lot of area to play.  All of the children, except Claude, nap in the afternoon.  Claude sleeps when he wants...no definite times for him.  

Their days consist of eating, playing, napping, bathing and sleeping.  At this age, with only a couple of house parents, it's difficult to take them to church.  But Vilbrun does spend time teaching them songs and Bible verses.  They are smart little tykes and just need the guidance to help them learn.  


We are praying for supporters for these children.  It's a huge responsibility, but these little ones would be without any help at all if we didn't take them in.  Please pray with us that the Lord will touch hearts to help these little ones.


We hope to send more photos soon.  The new doors are installed and helping a lot.  It's been so very hot here, and we are so thankful for the wonderful porch where the children can play without being in the scorching sun.  


Please keep IDADEE and all the children and staff in your prayers.  We are looking to the Lord for His help.  We pray your eyes are on Him, too.
