I've decided to start having "Ms. Carrie Days". I'm just going to randomly kidnap a couple kids every once in a while and bring them home with me for the day...lol I can feed them and play with them and just get to know them better.
Yesterday I brought a little girl to my house because her arm was badly burned. I had been trying to keep it clean at the land but when I seen her yesterday it looked awful. Her mommy had put some kind of home remedy on it. It was like a paste made with mud and tree bark. I tried to get it off but it was stuck on like glue. I know she was just trying to help her but I knew if I left it like that it would only get infected. So I asked her if she would let her baby come home with me for the day and I would take her to the hospital. Her mother agreed.
Once we got to my house I gave her a bath and fixed her something to eat. After her belly was full I laid her on my couch and turned on Finding Nemo. She was asleep in two minutes. This is what always happens when a child comes to my house. If you set them in a clean cool place with a full belly they sleep for hours. Their little bodies are just worn out and they never have time to rest. We visited the doctor after she woke up and then I took her back home. I'll go check on her today and change her bandages.
Today I'm going to go find another child and let them spend the day at my house. I went to the market and bought a bunch of clothes so when a kid does come over I can give them something clean to put on. There is one little boy I have in mind. I can't figure out if he has special needs or not so I'm going to hang out with him for the day and try to figure it out. He's very active but he doesn't talk much. He's only 5 years old. He may just be a slow talker but if its something more then I'll have to decide how to help him. Either way I'm sure we'll have a blast hanging out together!
