Lunch Break

So i got a couple minutes... well like 20 (thats what I need to get this internet working)!

I just wanted to say I started to cry a little bit this morning. See every morning we act out a Bible story with the kids. Yesterday it was "give it to Jesus!" Today it was "Everyone has something to give." The kids love it! They scream and laugh at our customes! :-) We get it on video so you guys will be able to see it once I get home. But anyways... we sing before and after the Bible story. Well I got up to show them the motions to "Lord I lift your name on high!" We didnt think they knew it yet... but were we wrong! As soon as Chris started playing the guitar they were singing on top of thier lungs. If you dont know the song, there is a part "You came from Heaven to Earch to show the way, from the cross to the grave, my debt to pay, from the grave to the sky... LORD I LIFT YOUR NAME ON HIGH!" I teared up a biut during that part becuase they sing so loud and with such joy. I really cant explain it but it was one of the best feelings in my life! And then if you listen closely and concentrate on one kid at a time you can hear their little voice over all others. Gosh... its just sooo cool! Even the shy ones are singing sooo loud! And Chhinh... oh Chinnh. He is the love of my life. When we group out girls and boys he doesnt budge. :-)
I also have to little girls now that always wear skirts and their hair is braided so perfectly!!! Son and Syran!
Ok... gotta go eat! Love you all... ho0pefully I will write more later tonight!

God Bless!
PS and Mere... you made me cry with that comment on the last post! :-) I miss you!

Nat, I hope you don't mind me leaving a non-Jesus related comment. We all miss you here in the office soooo much!!!! We read your blog every day and only make a few jokes about your spelling (jk... we make none! Promise)! It sounds like you're having a lot of fun and purpose, so way to go!!! Please come back soon! Those kids need you, but so do we!!! :)
