Last day....






~This was our last day and Sammy and I finished the mural at Dulce. A group of kids that Mamo has a kids' club with came to see Dulce. There were about 40 little kids that came and sang and prayed while we worked. It was amazing to see these sweet kids and think about the kids that would soon be living inside this house.
~After lunch we went to another orphanage. This one had babies and that was very hard on me. I painted their nails and I loved on them. There was a baby girl the same age as Karlee. There was also a little girl named, “Kendall” there. We took this as a sign from God. We had been praying for a clear answer about whether we should adopt a child or not. I couldn't quit crying when we left the babies. There was a baby boy that had only been there 2 days and wouldn't quit crying. Sammy held him the entire time and he finally calmed down. She let him finger paint on her arms. Also, the men were painting these little 3 and 4 year old girl's nails. It was so touching. When we went to leave there were several boys that were hanging on the gate and wouldn't let us close it . They were crying and begging us not to leave.
