today was our busiest day yet! we didn't have much down time and that makes it more like last year! we were busy all the time.... but that would be because i was there on a team last year. everything is packed into a couple weeks!
in the morning we painted the breezeway and the storage room. naturally, i got paint all over me... on my clothes, face, arms, feet, in my hair, and my hands made it look like i was finger painting! i don't think it is possible for me to not get dirty. good thing it wasn't horrible that we got paint all over the floor!
in the afternoon we made our way to the hope house (orphanage). this is what i have been waiting for the entire time! and they hung on to me like they always did. i can't even describe the love i have for those kids! and it overwhelms me that God loves them so much more (and us)! we were able to sing "head and shoulders, knees and toes" with them and tell them a bible story - where Jesus multiplies the fish and bread. we even demonstrated with real bread and paper fish! they were excited about the bread! we also gave them some sidewalk chalk to play with and we painted the girls nails... and one boy (one of the twins - for those who know who that is). we get to visit them every wednesday so i am sooo excited about that!
