Bradley and Connor came with us - something very good for them experience - that there are children and lots of them, who are far less fortunate than themselves ....
Bradley was pointing to the beautiful artwork on the walls surrounding the play area ...
... and this young man got stuck into his plate of yummy goodies as well as storing a couple of sweets in his pocket for later ...

I played soccer with Connor ...
... before he got stuck into a cup cake after the other children had had their full ...
... and then he wanted to go to the toilet. I was taken to the main building, by our pretty little photographed girl (4th photo) - a heart wrenching experience seeing all the cots lined up with babies sleeping .. some very small, then passing a neat dormatory with more beds than I was expecting to see, and then through the laundry area with washing machines tumbling and piles of clothes to be washed and sorted ...
Jeanette and friends .. you are doing a wonderful thing .. keep it up .. the world is a better place with caring people like you :)
... love the tongue !! ...
.. where Erin and her classmates sang Jingle Bells and a cute little song about a snowman being round and fat ... she sang and did all the actions with gusto ... a very enthusiastic little girl ... and then received her certificate .... 'Little Miss Independent .. oh yes .. teacher got that one right!!

ReplyDeleteIf only more people did things like this initiative. But I think most of us are guilty of the "I don't have time" thing and don't make time for something like this.
