The children here are so talented, you can really see that God has blessed this place and the people here. All the children sing and dance. They are constantly singing and playing whenever they get the chance. I love to wake up in the morning to the sounds of the children singing and playing their music. Everyone from the smallest to the oldest sings and there are multiple bands here that the children are a part of. The younger boys called the Joshua Band, have preformed for us many times the song ," I try to be perfect." They sound great! The older boys have a dance group called the Ground Shakers. they are preforming and practicing all the time.'
My favorite time of day is the afternoons when we have free time. The kids will pull out their guitars and we gather at the gazebo. This is usually where we will just sit and chill and sing every song we know. This is also the time where they share about themselves and their experiences as well as their future plans. They all want to go to America.
On our days off when we are around the city, we see all the kids and always think of the ones back at the orphanage and how much we miss them. At the end of the day we cant wait to get back to them, And the great part is they miss us too, they are always waiting at the gate for us to get back.
