Nails and Knots

Nail painting today and we took along string and a kit for making bracelets but we didn't do enough homework beforehand so tonight we are sitting in our apartment working on some bracelets so we can go back and do them with the kids.   We sat in an open area today - not sure Y was thrilled about all the kids there especially a couple of the boys who were a bit on the mischievous side.    We started off with Y and I doing our nails, her sister sure did pick out some good colors of polish for us.     One of the boys had the camera and took some interesting pics and videos but it was all good fun.   You just wish you could take them all home or some how give them a bright future.    After visiting at the orphanage we had a bite to eat and some great conversation with a wonderful lady who has a huge heart for these kids and visits them every week.    She also translates letters and gives to the kids and takes them packages we send.


Wow - some bright colors!
Jon working on getting out some knots in the string and happy to have such good company.

Yes that pink protrusion is his ear the boys were fascinated by the cardboard disks in the bracelet kit.
Again with the ears.

  1. Looks like fun and yet I can imagine how hard it would be to see so many that have no parents. I saw a pictureon facebook of Mark on a chair home from the hospital
