Day 12 | Elizabeth Dittman

Today was fun! I went back to the house today, and I actually did something other than sift sand. I got to stucco some of the walls in the house. We got the whole inside of the house done. It broke my heart when the mom came with her 2 kids. She gave her 4 month old son to Shannon to hold, and she sifted sand with us. we tried to give her a break many times, but she would not give up her spot of sifting sand. For the last 30-40 minutes, I played with the daughter and this little boy that came on the first day. We blew bubbles and used stickers. I got to hold the little baby boy, and he was so adorable!! I came over for the second time and, Bronlynn had rocked him to sleep. Once I got to hold him, he was awake, and he was very squirmy. I am so blessed to be here, and I don’t want to go home. (sorry Mom and Dad) I can’t wait to go to the church tomorrow and play with all the kids! I get to help in another VBS!! Tomorrow is gonna be a great day! Miss and love to all the people back home!! I have so many stories to tell you guys!! Also, Brent I miss you a lot, and I can’t wait to see you and compare stories with you! I love you!!

  4. Dad and I have been making plans and started budgeting for ALL of us to go to Haiti in two years. You and Brent have inspired me to go beyond my comfort zone in this area. I have been reading your blogs these past two weeks and felt sad that I have missed this great opportunity to minister and grow with my kids! I have been praying for God to continue His work there that we may be able to minister together there soon. Keep good notes of anything you would do differently so you can help Dad and I prepare. I find myself giddy with excitement about the possibility of this opportunity. Maybe we could even try to get Mommom and Pop to go?!? How many kids can say they witnessed to their mom in the area of foreign missions? I am so proud of the work you all are doing there. I can tell by your words that God has been changing and growing you. I can't wait to hear all about how God used you and the others. I miss you and can't wait to see you Friday!
