What we did all day: Part 2

No sad stories this time.

There were a lot of people staying in the house during the last couple of days of our trip. It seems like we were invaded by every midwife in a fifty mile area. Have you ever spent much time around a gaggle of midwives? The conversations are eclectic, to put it mildly. There are images etched on my pre-frontal cortex that I will never be able to erase.

Dolly and I were sleeping in the pharmacy, which has curtains on two sides, one of which overlooks the downstairs post-partum room and the other the upstairs common area. We had no privacy whatsoever, so we were feeling the need to hide out. Luckily, there was a birth room downstairs that was needing some TLC.  Here are the results of our artistry. Some new curtains had been hung in the window and we used the design for inspiration. 

Formerly know as the hibiscus room, we laid odds on how long before it becomes "the bird room".

Sarah was very happy. She said that this room used to be the least attractive, with bare concrete walls and no curtains. Now it is a cheerful room and will be our little legacy at MamaBaby Haiti.

Look for a barrage of posts in the next few days as I catch up on some things I think you will find interesting.

Thanks for reading.
