We have been told we will probably be getting an 8 month old whose mother just died and the father does not want to raise her, as well as a 3, 4, and 5 year old.
WE ARE INTERVIEWING NOW FOR A NANNY/TEACHER TO WORK WITH THE PRESCHOOL/KINDERGARTEN GANG.
We have bought a dehumidifier for the clothing room.
I want to say again how much I appreciate the volunteers. I will address shortly some of the concerns as they are my concerns also. i have had the advantage of dealing with the same issues for the last 5 years so have gained a little knowledge and will discuss it in an upcoming email.
