Hospital Open House Round 2

As you'll be able to tell from the pictures, Caroline was just as into the Hospital Open House activities the second time as she was during the first open house (if not more so!).  Emma was way more into it....Eli significantly less (he was really trying to convince us to let him go play with friends).

Caroline working with a sweet lady named Jill to intubate a baby
Putting an IV in with Mrs. Andrea - who is not only a nurse but an incredible singer & choir director 
Hearing about the relay race...trying to decide whether or not to do it...being told that the winner got a little bag of "happy pills" (aka M&Ms) convinced her
Participating in the relay race!

In the pharmacy trying to guess the number of pills in the cylinder

Aunt Amy may not end up being the only doctor in the family!
Emma doing the intubating thing


She made the "baby" breathe!!


Having a go at wound care
Some more wound care. 
Sweet girls meeting one of the patients in the ward
Hair cuts for the Cash Girls!

The pictures will tell you better than my words...no worries, the streaks were very temporary :)
 




After a fun and exciting hour in the hair salon last Thursday, we've got 2 ponytails in an envelope waiting to go back to the States to be mailed to Pantene's Beautiful Lengths program.  It's fun to be able to give freely of a gift God has given us. 

A few other glimpses into Cash Family Life

one of Eli's favorite spots lately - at the computer playing Minecraft

Spirit Day in the Acadamy - Theme: Dream Job
We've got a Skittles Tester & Analyst, a Star Wars/Lego Consultant and a Clown
Too sweet of a picture not to share
Eli's hidden talent may be rapping.

And dancing...he was surprisingly good in the Christmas Play.
Alright...I suppose that's enough pictures for one post.  

Been thinking alot about how life is completely normal and ridiculously strange...that may be coming in a post soon.  We'll see if I can get the thoughts to make sense...

Please pray for Nick and the team as they go upcountry next week.  They'll leave early Monday morning and will be returning the following Wednesday.  Feel free to pray for me during the 10 days that he's gone...I like him alot and miss him tremendously when he's not around! 

Thanks for sharing life with us...it's encouraging to know that people care enough to keep up with us through this blog. 

Surely there will be more to come.

  2. The hair cuts are beautiful, like mother and daughter. May God continue to be your source of joy and strength, filling you to overflowing so that you may freely give. We are reading "Kisses from Katie," a book telling of a young woman's ministry to children in Uganda, and you remind me of Katie. Her blog is on my blog list, along with yours. I think the two of you could encourage each other a lot. Have a blessed day.
