2/23/10   Sometimes don’t you just find yourself on silly journeys?  These journeys are just good stress releasers?  I usually get away at least twice a year for a couple of days.  The joy I have meeting people with the same interest...

  I think a lot about my experience in Haiti at God’s Littlest Angels Orphanage.  I left my heart with those beautiful children.  I think about them everyday and how all they want is the chance to be loved and to live with their “forever...

I went to Haiti with no expectations - only knowing I would be working with the children (ages - newborn to around 2 1/2) in the baby house.  For a little background - these children have come to GLA because their parents have died of Aids or other...
