Busy, Busy, Busy!

I'm waiting for Kenzy to get back from Port Au Prince with my new refrigerator. I'm so excited. Its run off propane so my food wont spoil when the electricity goes out. Everyday the electricity turns on and off randomly throughout the day. It's the craziest thing.
I keep thinking of all the things I'm going to buy now that I can keep them cold. I wont milk, cheese, eggs, and hot dogs !! It's going to be amazing. I'm so blessed someone offered to buy me one. I don't even know who it was but whoever you are if your reading this, thank you!
I just finished looking at the schedule for this month. I'm busy busy busy!
I've decided I want to start a child sponsorship program with the kids that live next to our property. Our little village is so poor. I've learned that many of the kids go to school but they can't afford books or pencils. How can you learn if you have nothing to read and nothing to write with??? If I can get people to sponsor these kids I could go to the market myself and buy them supplies. It wouldn't take much. It cost about $10 to buy all the books a child would need for one school year.
Its a lot of paper work though. I've been taking their pictures and writing down all their information. I have about 60 kids in our feeding program that I have to get information from. And I just found out I have only two weeks to do it!!
November 20th, a group from Soul Harvest Church is coming to Haiti and I'm planning on working alongside them. Cayla and Josh Adkins are coming and staying at my house the 22nd. Both groups are planning on meeting up and doing a medical clinic on our land. At the end of the week I'm flying home with Josh and Cayla.
My plan is to be in America for the entire month of December. I was reluctant about being away from Haiti for so long but I have so much work I need to do in America  We need to become a non-profit organization so we can qualify for government grants and partner with other missions in Haiti. Don't ask me how I'm supposed to do this because I have no idea. That's why I'm giving myself a month to figure it out. I also have a lot of paperwork to do for the sponsorship program.
Things are starting to get technical! I'm just taking deep breaths and going one step at a time. God will help. He always does :)
