Six miles a day

Yesterday was the first day of our third full week with the kids at the Havens! I am in the feeding group, so this week I am with younger babies who have demonstrated issues with developing muscles in their body properly to eat appropriately. We had a couple of feeding groups this morning in which we sang to them and used some techniques and instruments to facilitate better muscle tone and eating habits. The next group was just individual interaction. After holding one baby girl who christened my new skirt and my already dirty shirt, I cleaned her up and laid her down. I held a couple of others for a while after that. Needless to say, this group is much different than the last couple weeks of toddlers. Still, it is good and I can tell even the little ones enjoy being held and touched and fed.

Today was a good, tiring day. Dr. Weaver went Today B Weave went to pick up her daughter and several others coming to hang with us until we leave. A couple of guys came to film a documentary of our trip which is awesome!!! Anyhow, so since B Weave (Dr. Weaver) had the truck, we were on our own to walk back and forth to the Havens. I usually walk two or three out of the six times back and forth. Each way is 1.75 miles. Today I did about six miles and I totally feel it.

So, we are doing a class blog while we are here, and I posted today. I figure I will share that link so you can read that as well as my classmates thoughts so far. It is csdinzambia.blogspot.com.

I love you all!
