Vacation!

It is now summer in Thailand, the schools are closed and the girls are at home. Luckily there are plenty of fun things to do. Most of the girls had the opportunity to go visit family, all the girls went to a camp, and towards the end of April we hope to be able to go on a short vacation with everyone. But the girls also have plenty of days at home in which they get to play games with each other and the mothers, color their hair and paint their nails, watch movies and decorate cooking aprons that will be given as presents to sponsors. We always try have a good time with the girls despite the insane heat right now.
