Sometimes my job - especially when I am on assignment and in another country - just doesn't seem like work. I get to travel and be with friends. I get to work with people who truly have a heart for the Lord and for the poor. Isn't there a quote that goes something like "Love what you do and you never have to work a day in your life!" But then there are those days when you suddenly remember that work no matter where it is - is well - a lot of "work". Today was one of those days. To begin with it was incredibly hot as it filled up and then prepared to release the floodgates with a deluge of Noahic proportions. And then it seemed like everytime I felt we were just about to accomplish something I realized that I was mistaken. Oh well - there is always tomorrow!
I did have a chance to pass by the Daughters workshop. All the girls were busy at their machines but our three contestants were already hard at work on their dresses.
I will be heading out to Battambang tomorrow to check in on the Culinary Training Center. Some really neat things are in the works related to that project and I am looking forward to writing about them. Of course we are also experiencing some "challenges" as well and I will write about those too. Never a dull moment!
More later!

In the pictures below both Sreyroth and Sokchea are working on cutting and sewing pieces of their dresses. Mala has moved on to ironing the pieces she has already pieced together.
