Another Rainy Week

Hi Everyone, I hope that you are all having a most fabulous week in our Lord. The rain is still here, but it seems like the sun shine stays out a little longer everyday so there is hope of non rainy days. This week has been trial and error working with the HH (hard of hearing) kids on speech and language therapy. I have been very encouraged because for the most part they are all trying. I thought it would take at least a month if not longer for them to be comfortable enough with me to use their deaf voices but God has been working and they are opening up to me! I do have a few who are very shy and embarrassed of their deaf voices, then i have a few who like to play the bad boy card and act like they are to good for speech therapy. True Patience that is something I am always learning. Felicia (the pastors wife) from JDV (Jamaican deaf village) had her baby this week. Caleb Don-Mark Campbell. The first boy baby born to JDV. Everyone is very excited. The plattners and I have been helping watch the girls while mother and baby stay in the hospital for the week. This coming week. Kirk, Mr. Jones and Myself are going to Kingston to check on our paper work process and down here it is a hit or miss (positive or negative) out come depending on who you get to work with. If you cold please start praying and preparing our hearts and the hearts of those we will be working with so that everything can run as smoothly as possible that would be great. Also little Truitt Plattner was taken to the Dr. today because he was not keeping anything in. The Dr. said it is only a virus and he seems to be acting fine, but if you could keep him in your prayers that would be great. I don't think i have yet put any pictures of my blessings (the kids) on yet so i will try to get some on. Have a great weekend. Keep looking up and smiling HUGE because GOD is always in complete control and i love you. be blessed and be a blessing. - Erin-
