Obviously, I do not know how to rotate the pictures.

Fredy’s sponsor sent him some new clothes, pajamas, and shoes.  I asked Lazaro to make sure they fit so she will know for future knowledge.  Fredy tried them on and they were perfect!  I asked to take a picture of Fredy with the toys and pajamas so I could send it to his sponsor.  Of course Fredy smiled and allowed me to take the picture.  However, Fredy turned around to walk away from the bag of clothes.  Lazaro called him back and explained that they were his to take home.  Fredy’s response, “All of them!”  He was overjoyed and expressed himself by hugging me and saying “Gracias!”  (I had nothing to do with it but I took full credit–LOL)  These children have not ever been given anything new so it is difficult for them to comprehend the gifts.  It is our prayer that through a simple gift they can know they are loved by people who have never even met them.  It is our prayer that through a simple gift we will have the opportunity to show them the love of Jesus Christ.

 

 

The kids enjoyed vegetable soup for lunch!

 

They painted kites for a craft.  Thankfully, it is washable paint since they wore most of it!

 

Sweet Tatiana is one of the smallest children at the feeding center, but that does not stop her.  She is determined to wash her face and brush her teeth all by herself.  Notice that she found the perfect place to suction her toothbrush while she washes her face.   She is hilarious!
