We are sad to leave, but oh so happy to be going home today!
This morning we visited Kids Care Orphanage. We were able to pass out gnomes and candy and see several of the little ones referred to our friends in the Yahoo! Group. (After we were there your children were moved to the transition home!) (Candy, HM didn't appreciate William picking him up! The nannies say he is a good boy!)
We did some more shopping. Daddy picked out something special for Marissa and Annika!
We had pizza for lunch.
We visited Gelgela Orpahnage where Meteku lived for a few weeks and passed out more gnomes!
The children at both places loved the gnomes and smiled and nodded as they received them. The toddlers were especially excited and bounced for joy! We will post some photos in a few days.
We are at the hotel packing up to go to the airport soon.
I can't wait to get back to the U.S. to see Jeremy, Marissa, and Annika and give them the biggest hugs. Sorry, I will probably smell funny!
