Motion


What goes up and down and stays in motion with pumping? Hum…Yes, you guessed it; eight little children swinging on the swings. All eight children were laughing and calling out me, me, me. They wanted to swing higher and higher, oh my.From the high swings to follow the leader they were lead into the air conditioned room. Our team painted hands, stamped their hand prints and produced multiple finger painting cards. When all was said and done each finger was colored multiple times with Crayola paints and washed just as many. We had fourteen little ones running all around, waiting for a turn to paint and someone to tell them, well done.
Today, our newest little baby weak from malnutrition walked with the help of one of our team. This was the highlight for our day as he smiled proudly walking the entire room. I am sure God was watching him and delighting in what He saw. Another child saved from the hardships that exist all too often in this nation.
In another part of the village the older children were getting hygiene lessons for their teeth, kinder graduation pictures were taken and of course more English. I am amazed at how quickly children can learn once they put their minds to it. Today was a good day filled with lessons, laughter and lines. Thank you Papa for another chance to touch your little ones….
