We're Doing Great!




Joshua . The moment he learns to walk . . . and more development follows! Look at the way he holds the big ball . . . good job Joshua!










Nikki. Nikki finally walks . . . after 2 years and 8 months she now can confidently walk. Another case of global developmental delay due to malnutrition before she was surrendered to Rehoboth. Patience, proper care and love are helping her become more active and healthy as she waits for a loving family to care for her.

Birthdays and Goodbyes ....



Birthday Fun for Rommel . . . Everybody is ready to jump and try to get the treats frm the "pabitin" . . . even the "mamas" and "papas" are waiting their turn!











Bye-bye Rommel, Ella, & Racquel . . . Finally the Chato Siblings have a family. On September 29, 2008, they left Rehoboth, their home for more than 3 years. We thank God for this new family!










The Graham's at Rehoboth . . . Eric and Anna Graham arrived at Rehoboth on the 27th of September to bring home their children ... a day before Rommel's Birthday. What a great birthday present!!!










Hitting the pot . . . This was taken part of Rommel's birthday party. One of the games the kids are so excited about . . . "Hitting the Pot" is also one of the traditional Filipino ways of celebrating birthdays. Inside the pot there are lots of treats for the kids.









I hit it . . . ! After so many attempts! Finally a lucky one hits the pot . . . yeeheey!!!

24 September ....

"See what i made out of Lego's? It's a train! and it makes the sound tsug-tsug-tsug!"













Playing Super Heroes is one of the favorite pastimes of Rehoboth kids . . .












Would you believe that these babies working on a puzzle?! Nope! they are just enjoying the textures, the colors and the drawings . . .













The whole Rehoboth staff, especially the "mamas” are so proud that finally, this little boy is walking! He was diagnosed with global developmental delay . . . but now at 2 yrs 6 mths he is starting to walk and making bubbling sounds. Team effort, being pateint and doing the prescribed therapy as well as lots of love are helping him to become what he is now, a bubbly, endearing and a happy little fellow!
