Time is passing by too fast here in Cambodia. Every second, memory, and moment is one that i will cherish in my heart forever. This journey is a once in a life time experience and i don't want to miss any of it. I love it here and i dread the thought of leaving more and more with every second. I am in love with each and every one of the children. There will always be a special place in my heart for them and only them.
The past couple of day have been spent with the most wonderful people on the planet. Seeing them smile is a irreplaceable feeling that will warm up you heart. That feeling never gets old. I love them more with each hug, smile and laugh. Yesterday, as well as today we worked on fixing up the yard and chicken coop. It was lots of work but seeing the end project gave us all a feeling of accomplishment. Our yard work will give them more room for crops, which means more food for the kids. Our work in the chicken coop gives the chickens a cleaner and safer environment to live in. Know that i did all that is very rewarding.
Today, we gave out clothes to all the kids. Each one got one outfit and a pair of shoes. I have never seen children be so grateful for what we take as so little. The thank yous never stop but then again neither does our giving. We are constantly giving out little candies or pictures. All of the little things add up to the big picture in the end and with every day that picture is growing and growing.
I love getting to know each one of their personalities. Its funny how much you can learn about someone with out them even telling you anything. I love being able to look into their eyes and know how they are feeling. I want to look back on this trip and know that i gave them my all. I don't want to regret not doing something. So while I'm here i going to work my hardest! I wish you all could have this experience with me. Every moment I've been here has changed me in an incredible way. Words cannot describe how grateful i am for this entire experience.
I love and miss you all!! Thanks for following me on this incredible journey!!! <3
