Meeting Lovely Linda

This morning i went through to Durban North and met with Linda at the Fairhaven Childrens home. She has been involved for the last 8 years and tells me that it has been the most wonderful experience and she loves what she does. She told me about Peet & Jenni Wallace and how this was Jenni's vision many years ago and how so many babies have been placed in loving homes over the years.  They can have up to six babies at this home - this seems to be the rule, any more than that and you have to apply to become an institution. Not sure what that involves but it seems that it is best to keep things simple otherwise everything takes time and it's the babies suffer in the end. She spoke about having to go to court and remove a screaming baby and then bringing him/her home and watching them grow and change. She gave me examples about how this little one used to be like that and now he's like this and how amazing it is to watch their little characters develop. It is very obvious that Linda loves what she has been called to do and it warms my heart to know that these little ones have someone like her to care for them.

What a super visit!
