Officially approved...and training!!

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!
We are finally approved to open!! We’ve gone back and forth on the official date, but finally arrived at 1/2/2020! Looks good, no? 

Now that I have to plan for the start date, I feel so behind! All the essential stuff is in place – staff, bedrooms, clothing – but there’s still a lot to do! We got off to a great start with the two day staff training (see pics!) on giving care to children impacted by trauma. We’re also getting a complete electrical check up, fixing some plumbing issues, and improving the grounds (setting up a small vegetable garden, cutting down an avocado tree that is too close to our septic tank, planting grass for a small soccer field). Busy!

Thank you everyone for carrying me through the past couple months with your prayers! I’m so excited to soon be sharing space with staff and children – yay!!!
