today we said good bye to a school full of children that we have been helping with many things..it was sad and fun..a day of mixed emotions...they thanked us by doing a few performances..dances, songs and skits.....we gave them food, material things-books, school supplies, hats, beanie babies, clothing , chickens, a garden a working kitchen...and most of all we gave them HOPE.....we took pictures of each class with their teacher...many had never even seen their own picture..even the teachers followed us around for photos...i gave each of them their own picture and then made doubles so that they could have a school photo album......they loved it! the teachers cheered to have been given money and gifts and school supplies....such beautiful people..we made many new friends
