Baby hats, donor gifts and venitilators ... we hit the ground running

Since we've arrived in Ghana, we've hit the ground running trying to get things done. Monday was filled with shopping in the local market, preparing gifts for our gracious donors, making hats for newborns in the nursery and working on ventilators. Then it was time for dinner prepared by headlamp.

All in all, it was a great day!
