We have come up with a really cool fundraiser for the baby's home here in Sudan. We have been making hand print cards with the kids and then adding our own little details to them. A woman who is here now for a short time has agreed to go home and sell them in Canada. We're excited to be a part of this project and think it will help the new babies home a bit! We've made 50 so far and the kids have loved it.
We have a mouse in our hut who keeps us up for ridiculous amounts of time in the night. We have cockroaches in our pit latrine that almost crawl up our legs! We love Sudan!

Hello Girls, My name is Tracy, I'm actually coming to Amani Baby Cottage March 5 with my friend Jody. I randomly ran into Arielle's dad at the travel clinic today and he gave me your blog site. How coincidental is that in the big city of Minneapolis? :) I am extremely anxious to come work at the orphanage and excited to meet the two of you!! I'm loving the stories you two have posted!! See ya soon!

Hey Rachel, I'm not sure if you will get this comment, but I wanted to say Happy Birthday (yesterday)!!! I know you are in Sudan right now and probably don't have internet access, but I at least wanted to try. I love you and I am praying for you!
