I am Here

I don't have too much time to write today..but I did get here safe. It has been kinda hard adjusting, but I do feel called to be here. Yesterday I was trying to think of all the possible ways to change my flight to come home early...but today has been so much better. It is a very different culture, and there are so many kids that need love, which is so heart breaking to see. I have eight babies, and each child only gets a measly hour each day. I wish I had time to give them more love. You walk into the nursery..and you have 10 children swarming you with their arms in the air, because they want you to be picked up. Yesterday was very overwhelming to meet everyone, be in a new place, and not know anyone. I was so blessed to be able to meet Danielle in Florida which helped a lot, and everyone on staff is so sweet. The babies are crying..and my lunch break is up..so i must get back to them. I am doing well, but it will take time to adjust. Today we went on a walk around the orphanage, and it is very mountainous, and beautiful. The people are friendly, but I wish there wasn't such a language barrier-i want to talk more deeply with the people, but now I am limited to small talk. Take care and I will try to update soon again. Blessings and thanks for the prayers...i can feel them :)
