The rainy season seems to have arrived. Usually we only get the rain in the evenings but even the days have had periodic spurts of drizzle. However, after the heat April and May produced, the coolness the rain brings is welcomed at the moment.
Now that it is has started to cool off and rain, the grass seed was applied to the football field. Now we pray that the rain will remain slow and steady for a couple of weeks without the torrential downpours or flooding so the seed can sprout. We are all thrilled to see this become fruitful as the girls have been playing football in preparation for a new season next fall.
With school coming to a close, we will have many volunteers leaving for the summer and some individual ones arriving. There are lots of on going projects in process and the daily routine of the kitchen and sorting through donations.
I also had the blessing to take the girls that are graduating high school to shop for dresses. It really humbled me to see them get to go to the stores and actually pick out something of their choice. Also the way they were more concerned with looking for dresses that suited the other and stood outside the dressing room to give opinions, showed me how much they are actually sisters.
This weekend, Ira made one of those washer toss games for a few of the neighborhood kids. They loved it and even played after dark. How they saw the washers I do not know but they are here almost every evening asking if Ira can come out to play. Haha...he is a teenager again. Language is no barrier in relationships for sure. Here are a few pics from the week.
