Well my time here in Uganda is coming to an end I only have about three weeks left. This place is amazing and has changed my life so much it sure is going to be hard to leave. The babies here have become such a big part of my life watching them grow and learn new things makes me feel like a proud mom, one of the babies that I work with has just started to learn how to crawl what an exciting thing to be a part of! Each morning when we walk into the babies home we are always greeted by two or three of the toddlers running to the door with a big smile and open arms ready for a hug. These are the things that keep you going each and every day.
The other day one of my roommates and I took two babies to the coffee shop down by the supermarket for the afternoon. We were stopped by a few people on the streets asking us questions about the babies and where they are from. So many people were so grateful for the fact that we were here looking after the orphans of their country and what a blessing it is to be able to make such an impact not only in the lives of the babies but also for the future of this beautiful country. We had such a great afternoon, the babies were so well behaved and you could just tell that they had an amazing time.
I love it here and I pray that I will be able to somehow keep track of the babies here when I go home to continue to watch them grow and develop into the next generation of leaders in Uganda.
