** Thanks so much for all of the donations that have come in! It is amazing how God has provided all their needs in just about a week!



As of today, she is moving in with her friend in Phoenix until she finds an apartment. She has found a studio with 2 months free rent and reduced rent after that, but it is not available until June. For this reason, we have a few weeks to collect stuff and we will store it here until she finds a place. Also, we need to be very careful not to collect too much stuff since she will likely be in a studio apartment.

She is so excited to start work - you can't imagine! Wednesday late at night I was trying to figure out how I was going to be here for H's bus at 8:45 and 11:30, go to a hearing doctor with Josiah at 10:00 am and go to the main office for Yvonne to do her final job paperwork, about 45 minutes away - all with 8 kids -6 of them sick with hacking coughs- 4 with fevers and a couple throwing up - then be back by 2:00 for H's dentist appointment. Our friend Tamara emailed me not even knowing anything about that and offered to help us with anything the next day because she had a few free hours! It was a huge blessing. She stayed with sick kids - and packed up all of Yvonne and Happyness' clothes and things in their room, while we ran out to the office. Thanks Tamara!
