As a foster father of orphaned children, I feel I'm doing something positive to bring betterment in the unfortunate children's lives. Though I face some down moments every now and then but most of the time I'm happy about my work.
On the personal front, I am glad my little house is getting ready slowly, taking little steps by and by.
I was thinking of giving the house a coat of paint before rains fall (May, June, July, August ) . And lo, a friend appeared before me yesterday. Sagar is a computer mechanic but he also takes up house painting job. He gave me some valuable advice. He promised to give me an estimate of the expenses tomorrow . Though I am short of fund but with his support I will be able to complete this part of work in three weeks or so.
This development is giving me a feeling of happiness.

I hope everything works out and the house is painted before the rains start. It's always better to cover wood before the rains so it doesn't take damage.
One of my brothers and his wife also takes in foster children. That is a great way to help the children who need help the most and to help yourself feel like a worthwhile person in your own right.

You run this orphanage yourself? Wow! I would love to see pics and where is it? In which state?
