The Library!

I just realised I forgot to tell you what’s happening there!

Since I was sick the last week I didn’t manage to get everything quite sorted before leaving, the table and big cushion were still being made and there were more books to arrive, but I got an email the other day from Abhishek saying the table finally turned up, and the kids love the room and it is nearly done. I didn’t get to finish the final touches since I was sick the last couple of days, but it was looking pretty awesome, and the kids were constantly in there reading or playing games. I’ve asked for some photos to be sent, but this is the ONE that I have from when the carpet had just been put in and I went in to check the cushions and found a quiet little group!

Little cuties. I miss them!

update: just got another email with photos and they’ve split the kids into two groups with Hanok and Resha as bosses and they go in everyday and love it! yay! thanks guys you are all awesome, we managed to raise over $600 and bought over 200 English and Nepali, fiction and non-fiction books, youth books and picture books.
