Reuniting is one of my favorite things, especially when it’s
with friends who live on another continent and are ones you haven’t seen in… over a year!
We have been to the camps a handful of times now. But every time my friend, Salome, has not been there. I have gotten to spend time
with her girls, but I had yet to see her.
Until today… We were reunited!
Salome is one of my best friends in Camp Vision. She and her girls mean so much to me. She is next to me in the picture above, and her girls are Mary to her left, Naiomi to my right, and Hannah on the far right.
Every time I have come, Salome’s girls run up to me yelling, Kelliiiiiiiiii! It is one of the happiest things in the world 🙂
I got to sit and catch up with Salome today as she did laundry. One of her girls made me chai, and I just got to sit outside their home and be with them. She brought out a soap container I had given her last year when I left, and told me, “Every day I look at this, and it reminds of you. And every day I pray for you.” Wow. What an amazing friend.
This has been one of my favorite moments since we arrived here. I can’t wait for the day soon where this is a normal day for us, that we get to go down to the camps almost every day and build these relationships again.
Today I also got to reunite with the little girl who always always always found me when we would go to the camps last year.
Susan!!!
Here is a picture of she and I taken today, and beside it is one from last year. She has grown so much!
Reuniting really is such a sweet sweet thing 🙂
