Yep, its been over a year...

My last update was May 26, 2016 and here it is almost to the end of June!

Since my last update...we have been pretty busy with life.  I have had a few contracts to fill with furniture and cabinets.  My girls are a year older - and that makes a lot of difference at this age!  I bought some land for our future house and shop.  We have grabbed some stuff from the container for the house and shop.

The Girls -

A piano that I found for free in Omaha, recently arrived at our house from the container!

They are growing up so fast!  Victoria will be three this August and Abby is almost a year and a half.  Here, they start school at three years old, the school that Victoria will be attending also has a program for the younger siblings of the students.  They will both be off to school this fall!

The Dream -

The dream seems a little cloudy these days.  It is sometimes difficult to make it through a day which makes it hard to focus on work and on the future plans I have.  I still want to make it all happen, but my progress has been slowed to a crawl.  Taking care of my family has proven to be a lot more work than I expected.  I struggle to find time to work on the carpentry projects and preparations for the carpentry school and beyond.

Help please!

I am asking for some help.  My goal is to be self sufficient, so if you have any contacts in Haiti that need furniture or cabinets built - I would love to get busy on that!  I am also asking for your help in the form of donations.  The girl's tuition is just under $900 US each for the year.  I would like to get started working on our new property, I will need to build a fence, hook up to grid power and start construction on the house.  I would like to upgrade my solar power system, the batteries are at the end of their life span and I only have about 300 watts of solar panel capacity right now.  I would greatly appreciate any help you can send my way.  There are donation buttons on this blog page for one time donations and monthly support.  I am doing this through a 501(c)3 set up for my work down here.

As always, if you can't support me financially, I understand and I ask for your prayers as well.  Pray for His guidance for us and all will be well!

Thanks,

Scott, Ruthcher, Victoria, Abbigaelle
