Thursday we were able to go to a couple of the orphanages that most of the kids had come from, play with the kids and take donations to them.
Words can't even express how I felt being amongst those beautiful little faces. We aren't supposed to post pictures of the kids from the orphanages so unfortunately I can't share them with you but let me just tell you, they were precious. There were a few little ones that really stood out to us and we fell in love with them. One little girl in particular left me in tears.
Just recently we had the chance to see some of the kids that we had taken care packages to and were at the orphanage the day we went. To see them now, in the US, with their family... it's really something incredible! How amazing to see them here, knowing all the prayers that surrounded them throughout the adoption process that their parents went through, to see how much they've grown and how well they're adjusting... Wow! Praise God for such miracles!
We stayed there playing with the kids for quite a while that day and they let us tour the orphanages and served us coffee in their traditional coffee ceremony. We had so much fun and left feeling very humbled.

I remember the one particular girl you're talking about. Broke my heart too. I also miss the coffee. :)
