Goodbye VI kiddies :(

Wednesday marked our last day to babysit for the VI team meetings. We haven't babysat since we got back from South Africa... so our first time babysitting... was our last time. We had a nice time watching the kiddies and I know I'm going to miss them all SO much! The VI team has some amazing kids! Well behaved and respectful and it is always a joy to get to watch them! Damarise and I love doing it and we will definitely miss them all!

Okk... so since it was our last time we snapped a lot of pictures. :) 

Noah found a frog and named it Sammy :) He kept it in a bucket for a while just to look at and then let it free :) 

Damarise and Renata... She is the cutest girl in the whole world!!!

Renata and me. I love this lil' girl!!!

Noah and his froggy :) ... haha... he was laughing cause he turned the frog around right when Damarise went to take the picture :P Silly boy!

Ummm... Noah was climbing up a tree... and was hanging on a branch when that branch broke! *scary!!* he was fine and dandy and the place on the tree where the branch had broken was leaking this creamy looking stuff. Weird! 

All the Roger kids have these adorable crocs! :D

Is he cute or is he CUTE?! Asher is one adorable looking boy!!! :D

He can right the first letter of his name! WOW!!!! Way to go Asher!! :D 

Haha, Noah and Emily were showing us there Tae Bo skills ;) 

Noah was the guard of the tree :) 

Damarise showing Renata and Emily the video she took of them. 

Awwwww :)

Asher is so cute! :D

My feet :)

Awwww Ms. Damarise and Asher :)

Asher and me... hehe... he's such a goofball :)

Swing fun! :D

Just thought this was a cool picture of Asher's hat :)

Damarise and I with all the kids that were there Wednesday. 

Kris in the office downstairs :) 

The Mozambican flag :) I love it! It's so colourful :) ... 

And that's the end of all of our babysitting adventures for Mozambique :( I'm going to miss it SO much! Maybe someday we'll get to hang out with all the VI kidos again :) Who knows.... 

A Kiddie Day

Today was a day full of kids! This morning Damarise and I headed down to the VI office to watch all the VI kiddos who don't go to the SIL school. We had fun :) The kids are always a joy to hang out with and can put a smile on my face :)

Noah and Camiel found and captured a gecko. I felt so bad for the poor little gecko. He was being squished! After about a half hour of holding and playing with him they let it go :) 

Cute Crocs! Pep, one of the nice stores here, got in a bunch of them and most all the mom's went to buy some for their kids :P

Emily was telling me what she got for her 5th birthday. Her favourite present was a bag of straws! :) Hehe, so we were talking about how cool straws are and what our favourite coloured straws are. :)

An artistic shot of Damarise's capri buckle. Nice one Damarise! 

Aw! Three happy friends! Emily, Renata, and Asher. 

Happy!!! :D I love Cohen's face!

Nora and Noah digging out a whole... or getting "chocolate" for their chocolate factory. 

Renata eating snack. 

Popcorn! Mmmm

Cool water bottles!

Damarise's eyes... :P 

Feet feet feet :)

Yeah! Christian smiled and laughed this time!!!

The cooks and workers for the "chocolate" factory.

Smile :D

At 11:30 we came back home from babysitting, packed lunch and headed to SIL to watch the kids during their lunch break. At 1:30pm we taught the 1st and 2nd grader's art class. It was fun!!

At 2:30pm school got out and Damarise and I hung out at SIL 'til 4pm when Ms. Charity and Ms. Sharon came with their kids for us to watch while they walked around the track. 

Asher is strong! He could swing on the rope really well!

Noah, Camiel and Thomas digging for gold :P 

About 5:30pm we came back home :D It was a long day (and totally wore me out!) But it was worth it! Kids are so fun!!! :D

Babysitting the VI kiddies

This morning, Damarise and I got to babysit the Vi kids while the parents had their Wednesday meeting. It was fun fun! We haven't done it in a while, so it was nice to see all the kids again :)

Here's a glimpse at our morning... and some of the wonderful, cute kids that we get to watch.

Renata and Asher Rogers.  They are soo cute! And always smiling!

And there's his face... Aww... can you give me a smile Christian?

Asher can smile! :)

And Cohen can... hehe.. do a silly face...

Oh! There we go! Cohen can smile!

And Renata can smile! *Cute!*

So can you smile now Christian?... Aw... guess not.

Uh oh! Renata found the mud! 

Ok! This is sooo weird! We have babysat at the VI for the last 2 years and never noticed this before. That is a satellite dish covered in vines! Ew! ... I wonder if it works?

Hehe, I was trying Damarise's bandana on Christian.

He's not to sure about it :P

Anyways, there's all the pics from this morning. We had a blast! :D
