Pics

Tonight, I am pretty exhausted so instead of writing a post, I decided to just share some pictures. I am trying to learn the kids' names, so I am taking shots of all of them to make a photo album. The tricky part is that half the kids can't write their names in English. And I can't pronounce them well enough to translate! But here are some pics from school...










Gorgeous, aren't they? One quick note about this last little girl. She is a petite second grader. Last year, she came to one of Asia's Hope's orphanages. I was just told the story about how she arrived. Her grandmother was afraid that if she brought her, the child would then not want to stay. So she put her on the back of a motobike for a 5 hour ride to Phnom Penh. That the moto driver brought her here...that he didn't drop her somewhere else or sell her to someone...that she made it her safely is a miracle. Thank you for your continued prayers for these kids...for the ones who are here. For the ones who will be coming. And for the ones who need help and hope.
