Clinic

 

Electrical work is being done these days on phase one.  Stucco is being applied to the infirmary section (phase two) and I'm really liking the colors.  Amazing how paint transforms a building.  The above is the waiting area where there will be cement benches but no tattered, old magazines.

Yves

Yves sends his regards to everyone.  I've never met anyone who smiles as much as he does.

Espwa's second string

Earlier this week, one of our soccer teams played a team from town.  Score was tied at 2 to 2.

Soccer balls

Soccer balls have a short life here at Espwa so the boys have become adept at rebuilding them.  String, tape, shredded medical gloves... are all used in this process.

Soccer match, what else?

If the guys aren't playing soccer they're talking about it or watching it on television.  Here's a group watching two European teams playing it out.  The last thing on their minds was haircuts!  See below.

Hair time

Michelange getting her hair done by Boniface

Sunday afternoon is a great time to try out new hairstyles or so say our girls.

Laundry

 Ernice

 

Daniel

Our little boys and girls have their laundry done by adults who are hired for that reason but the older ones have to do it themselves.  Takes about three hours and then it's time to dry.  Ironing comes next but one needs an iron for this-- not always possible.
