Mike & his crew

Mike ran a carpentry crew all week.

Sometimes his apprentices were very green.

He is a great teacher and mentor. Wilguens and Nadege are a couple of his special buddies this week.

Nadege wanted a little table for her room. She knew exactly what she wanted and asked Mike if he would build it for her. Mike can't say no to these cutie-pies, so he got to work on it. Nadege was at his elbow and enjoyed helping and varnishing. Sometimes the boys tried to help too, but she loves to work with her hands, so it was way more help than she needed or wanted!!

Here's the rest of his crew.

These guys have just a little more experience.

Mike must be a great teacher, because they kept right at it until all of the children's bedrooms have screen doors.

We hope this will help the air flow through, so the rooms are cooler and less stagnant & reduce the number of mosquitoes & disease carrying bitey bugs!
