Oh my... well thats it! We are back!
That was an emotionally draining, very sad evening at my orphanage. The kids cried very hard... which surprised me. I thought I would be the only one to cry. They cried and cried and hugged and hugged. They are sooo sweet! One of them named Chihhah told my team are HIS PARENTS! WOW! Another said she was so blessed to have us in her life and to please, please come back - she said all this in between tears. The older ones, even the boys that were 16 and 17 cried. It truly broke my heart! My Chhing he cried when I held him and we sang "Yes Jesus Loves Me." He held my hand so tight. A lot of the kids wrote me letters. One of them asked me in his letter to be his God Mother. Another told me he wanted to be a doctor. These kids are just so amazing. I cant believe I cant go back to see them... until next time I make it out here. I miss them sooo much already! WOW! I have to go... see you soon.
