The day got off to a very early start with Amber and Tristan leaving at 5:45 am to go to childcare and then to Amber's 12 hour work shift. She does this four days a week (Mon, Tues, Fri and Sat)
Elaine and Tim made sure LaShawn and her family were up and ready to go. Richard left with the van at 7:30 am. Elaine said Autumn enjoyed being read to last night. If anyone has children's books to add to our collection that would be great.
The Evening Hosts, Donna and Glenn arrived early and did so many helpful things before the guests arrived. After they arrived Glenn put back up part of the "curtain" in LaShawn's room, so they aren't bothered by the night light in the courtyard.
Judy drove the afternoon van and did double duty by bringing part of the evening meal. Christian was enthusiastic about his first day at Rocksprings Summer Day Camp. He said his favorite thing was Arts and Crafts. He is such a cute young man--and so polite and nice! Takes after his wonderful Mom I guess! They are a delightful family.
Donna and Glenn set the table and Ethelyn brought Pizza and Chick Fil A chicken nuggets, and chicken strips to go with Judy's large lovely salad and ice cream sandwiches. Christian was particularly excited about the Pizza! There was enough food to make meals for tomorrow also.
Barbara and Bonnie are the overnight hosts and will welcome Amber and Tristan back about 9 pm.
The BIG NEWS is that family # 3, that we anticipated arriving on the van, never came to the IHN Office today...that happens sometime. So it appears we will have two families all week...and they are two nice families indeed.
Thanks to all who made this day successful for our guests--you are all appreciated!
God Bless You and God Bless Amber, LaShawn and their children.
