I said I wouldn't cry..

I said I wouldn't cry when I posted this one but it just breaks my heart. This little girl you can tell by her face the abuse she has suffered. She wouldn't let me hold her or touch her and for my husband to try would have caused her more pain.   Oh how I wanted to love her and tell her it would be alright but how do you say that when they have to go back into the same "physical" abuse.  Somedays it is so hard to see them and  leave them.  Please forgive me but it just hurts so bad.  

It is ones like this that get to our heart

There are so many of these babies and women who live in just a tiny space.  The 1st picture shows the entire,  I don't know what to call it, it is like a hole in the wall,  no lights , no water , nothing just a floor and walls.  This woman's husband left her and she had no clothes for her baby.  Our interpreter came and asked if we had some clothes for this naked baby.  Thank you to all of you who send baby clothes and other clothes and things.  We were able to fit the baby and give the momma so clothes for it and  some baby formula .  She has 2 other sons that I will post pictures of that had no real clothes.   The picture is below.

These 2 boys

These two boys break my heart.  They live in a small little place  with their mama and their new brother. Above is a picture of it.  They were so dirty and had no clothes that are fit to wear that were clean.  The little boy with the shaved head had lice so someone shaved his head.  Lice is a big problem here and even in churches or places you will see people, children picking lice out of each others hair and squeezing the lice and throwing them on the floor.  With all the hugging we do I am surprised that we have not gotten lice. Anyway they now have some clothes instead of the one set they had.  Also thank you to all who send the things and they got some flip flops too.  They did't have an thing to put on their little feet. 

O.K. I can't help but .....

I can't help but smile when I see this picture.  When I saw this on her up in one of the mountain villages I knew it was perfect for her. And she was so happy with it.  I had to take a picture of her. O.K.  I admit I took 3 or 4 pictures of her.  She loved this and isn't she adorable.  Thank you to all of you who help us out by sending the childrens and the babies and all the clothes for the people and also the supplies and medical supplies.  It is so needed here.  This island is not like the main islands of the Philippines,  it is so badly poverty and abuse.  So thank you more than you will ever know.  

O.K. I admit it ;)

I admit it,  this little girl stole my heart.  She just kept looking at me and wouldn't take her eyes off of me. I wanted to take her home with me.  She is in a high mountain village..  Every time I look at this picture I tear up.  I wanted to take her with me but alas we still don't have the orphanage we want.

What a cutie

Someone sent some "onesies" baby clothes and can you tell this made this little boy so happy.  He seemed to know that he looked good ;). Thank you to who ever sent them all.  They are so needed because so very many of these babies have hardly any clothes if any at all.  

So adorable

This little guy was a heart strealer. He has his new shirt and is looking in to see what else is there.  He is thinking “hummm maybe some rice”. It is so hard to leave these children there and not be able to take them all home with us.
