children playing

this boy has sticks to guide the tire he is playing with

the boys roll the tire up hill and let it roll down. a game they play. the tires are also used for socker markers

sweet

this little girl was a blessing and full of love, yes, I would bring her home with me.

she enjoyed 'doing' my hair

she put the rubber band in to hold my hair back

now she puts my hair in pony tails

what a smile! so loving

  1. Thank you for posting these beautiful pics. Kim, I couldn't go and do what you're doing. My heart was split just looking at the photos. I will keep praying for you all to be used by God for His divine will. (And for your headache to cease and desist, too!) I love you. God bless you, Sister.
