THE WAIT IS OVER.............

Here is the truth, getting some of these children to smile was really hard and this is all we hoped to accomplish on this trip. So on Christmas morning when they recieved their Christmas t-shirts (thanks to Mr. Cecil Miller) and the Christmas hats (thanks to Sally & Oscar Kango'ro) the joy we experienced from these children cannot be described in words! Here are our children for some they came close to smiling but hey this is what you all helped us accomplish, A SMILE!

Jesse it's true what the bible says "Give and it shall come back to you in good measure." These kids were happy alright but what I and the team that came with me experienced will remain with us for the rest of our lives! I envy you all that work with them and I know its hard work but isn't it a blessing knowing that everyday you make a difference in a child's life and I tell you what I learnt from this is nothing you do for these children is in vain! God bless you all.
