Day 1, July 13

We met the girls at 10:30 today at the orphanage. They were nervous and so were we, but it was a special time. We gave them gifts Melody had prepared then we went and played games for a couple of hours with the kids at the orphanage in the gym. that was a wonderful time. We played duck, duck, goose and telephone in Spanish, and dodgeball, and sharks and minnows. A couple of the younger boys wanted to use me as a human jungle gym during the games and that was a lot of fun as well. We went to lunch with the girls and our interpreter, social worker and attorney. We found out the girls wanted to go home with us that night. That was really cool because we were expecting they would want to wait till the end of the week. We enjoyed playing volleyball and cards for most of the afternoon and evening. Kai and Kaleb really enjoyed the girls as well They were eager to serve in any way they could. I was so proud of them..
