We finally signed the one year rent agreement :) I SO HAPPY!!!! It took a while until we sorted things with the landlord, the bank, printer wasn't working (!) etc... etc.. things take time here in Africa and this deed took none the less.
However, here I am with a signed copy in hand. The new 'landlord', Moses is all so keen about this new project too. And so is Jimmy's (the orphan - owner of the house) aunt. Apparently, she's forked out some more money towards the renovation works. I was so pleased to hear that so I hope Moses won't turn back to us asking for more money to finish off the work.
Tomorrow I'm expecting a small army of workers at the house. Moses tried to explain to me that he wanted them to come all at once to speed things up rather than having one complete a job after the other. So looking forward to that..... :)
In the meantime, here are a few more photos which I can now term as the 'before' photos! Keep checking this blogsite for the 'work-in-progress' ones, and who knows I might be in time to witness the 'after' transformation. Yippie!!! ...can't help cheering :) oh, and the kids got another sweet today, another good excuse to celebrate once again!!!!!
I would like to thank all of you for your contributions. You have made this happen. I would have never achieved so much without you.
love & kisses to all

So glad that you have signed contract for new school. I think you should frame that contract! Now I will pray for you so that you see it ready before you leave, even though, knowing you, I have the feeling that you will manage to drive them on to finish the work in less than half the time.
God bless you always. He will repay you more than you know for all the good work you are doing.
Love and kisses. Auntie Maria
