Grace and Co.

 


These are two of Grace's friends. They slept over last night while the boys spent the night with one of their friends. Wow, are girls different than boys! These sweet things disappeared for hours and reappeared smelling of way too much perfume and singing High School Musical tunes. They watched Camp Rock - maybe 3 times AND went to bed on time. They ate cinnamon rolls and smoothies for breakfast instead of a double batch of pancakes and 2 liters of milk. Nothing blew up, was broken or destroyed in the last 24 hours. Nothing was caught on fire and I did not find a miscellaneous assortment of sticks in the house. The front door remained shut and I could hear myself think. I heard "thank you for having me over Mrs. Pruitt." at least 4 times during their first 30 minutes in the house and they took everything with them when they left. While they were here - one of the boy's friends arrived looking for his scooter that he left behind about a month ago. He also remembered to ask for his toothbrush that he left here last weekend!

Oh yes, boys and girls are different! It is almost too quiet around here, almost!

Hi Anne Marie,
I was one of the group from Eastside Christian, returning for my second trip this past July/August.
It is so good to have found your blog. I think of Mathare everyday and you are all in my prayers. It’s hard when one has formed a bond with people to then go away and not know what is going on in their lives. Keith and Kathy and Mary and Wallace – you are all doing sooo much good there and it takes so much of your time and effort. I am glad for any bits of news I get. Please give everyone my love.
Much love in Christ,
Susan Shearer :0)

Hi Pruitt family,
Grace is growing to fast. It looks like she has grown since you left here and went back. Ben and Nick talk often of Paul and Michael. Hope all is well with you. Would love to see a picture of the boys.
