We spent the morning going from house to house; giving piggyback rides, singing and reading books. The children were really excited to see us. It was joyful to walk into each house and feel the unconditional love that these children had to offer. A few of the children remembered me from my last trip with Julia and Elissa. For example, Henry could not see me (he has only one eye and his eyesight is poor) but recognized my voice. He shouted “Mary from America” from across the room. It made me all teary eyed.

In the afternoon, Patricia and Cherona joined the team as they arrived from Tianjin Airport. We played with the children outdoor pushing them and their vehicles around. We were exhausted but happy to be a part of their fun day.
