Needing their own beds

The news today is not near as positive. The children are still unharmed, but their home has sustained enough damage that they cannot stay there until it is assessed by an engineer. They are being moved to one of the other houses, where 80 younger children live. This means that they are making their way down the streets we had so hoped they would not have to see. It also means added stress on the nannies and further limits of water and food. They do not have their own bed tonight, as small and meager as it was before.





Here are their beds that await them here. The stark contrast between these rooms and where they rest tonight is almost more than we can bear. We just finished preparing their bedrooms to pass the time. Now that time looks a long ways off.
