On Christmas Eve we had a wonderful dinner with friends from Haiti Health Ministries. Great food and great fellowship. Then as a family we watched Home Alone - a Christmas classic. Christmas morning we opened gifts. Luke got my used ipad, the girl's each got one Haitian - made American Girl bed and a wardrobe for their dolls to share.
My mom flew in early evening on Christmas Day and since her arrival we've been playing a lot of Caring and Sharing Bingo (a family game) and introducing my mom to our many friends here. Yesterday my mom and I walked a Haitian mile to Madanm Christians orphanage. The children were excited to meet my mother and put on a great (and extremely long) Christmas program for us. Here is a wee clip.
Teresa's family flew in yesterday and today my mom was reunited with all 5+ of her grandchildren. Oh Happy Day! Then, I've heard there is some fun New Years celebrations. We shall see.
