    Moving, Moving, Moving

    It has been a week of movings...last Saturday the entire Eicher house moved into the new Duterte house. Then this Saturday the entire Cherne home transferred to the Eicher house.  Moving is a lot of work, but it really was a great morning!  I wish you could've seen it all...the whole CSC family went to work moving boxes, clothes, beds, mattresses, cabinets, cribs, couches, and kitchen supplies out of Cherne.  It had to be completely empty so that the renovations can be started this week. 

    The aunties, uncles, staff, and all of our kids down to some of the preschoolers pitched in to help out.  Melrod made about a million trips back and forth with the little red wagon carrying house supplies.  Jashly carried toys one by one across the yard.  Jonjon helped Uncle Joel organize the store room.  The big boys showed off their muscles by helping with some of the heavier things.  But I'd have to say the awards for the best workers would go to Charydyn, Riza Mae, and Rafael.  Rafael is small, but he was certainly pulling his weight.  I loved watching him carry mattresses!  He put them over his head, but he is so short that the mattresses hung nearly to his feet in both the front and the back.  That didn't stop him though!  As soon as it was deposited in its new location, he would literally run back to find something else to carry.  With a lot of teamwork, we were able to completely clear out the Cherne home by mid-afternoon! 

    The shelter is a little confusing at the moment.  The Cherne home stands dark, silent, and empty.  The Eicher home is now filled up with Cherne kids.  (We are calling them "Chicher" kids while their house is being redone.)  I'm so used to them living in the Cherne home that I do a double take everytime I see one of them enter the Eicher home.  In addition to that, the former Eicher kids are now living in the new Duterte home.  All of the kids are still getting used to their new homes...after school many of them have accidentally gone to the wrong houses.  But despite being a little confusing, it has been a very exciting week for all!  The Duterte kids are thoroughly enjoying their new home and the Cherne kids are excited for their home to get fixed up as well!

    Tammy,

    I just have been so inspired by looking at the child of Cebu and would love to adopt a preschool child. Could you give me any advice or phone numbers? I see your parents adopted 4 boys, that's great! I just don't know where to start. Any information would be greatly appreciated. If you want my # just let me know..thanks, lynn chiapponi
