Yesterday, March 15, 2011, marks the halfway point of the race. I have had so many incredible experiences and met so many amazing people over the past five and a half months. Having to leave a place and the people you have come to love after a few short weeks is really hard and it hurts…a lot! However, I do feel closer to the Lord because I have been given the tiniest, most minute glimpse of the love He has for me through loving some of His beautiful children! Although I had to say goodbye to children the Lord allowed me to fall madly in love with, they have not left my thoughts for a single day. I think about them daily. As I pray for each of their lives, their beautiful and precious faces run through my mind. I want to share with you these faces that I will never forget.

I hope you enjoyed getting a glimpse of the beautiful children that have captured my heart. Please join me in prayer for each of their lives.
