We didn't go visit orphans today, but we did have 10 orphans come visit our homeschool group from an orphanage nearby. We've been blessed to be a part of this ministry a few times already with our group, and were looking forward to it again!
Here they are getting off their bus (most of them in blue t-shirts) as moms & kids went to greet them.The excited little boy out in front is who Bryan & Chandler be-friended today! It was SO fun to watch!
They wanted to show him the farm animals
My boys played "tag" with just him for I don't know how long!
When we left Bryan said "Mom, it was just so fun to see him happy! And I had fun too!"
Tiffany attached herself quickly & got to love on a precious little girl.
She told me "Mom, I'd adopt her in a second."
What a neat thing to see kids think outside of themselves & their usual "playgroup" time and give of themselves to the little orphans.

Oh Abby ... you know I LOVE this! I'd love to know more about the kids you ministered to and how you went about getting involved with them. It is our hearts desire to connect with the fatherless community here locally as we already tend to those internationally in ways the Lord shows us. It's a little ironic that sometimes, it feels harder to do here!
I love how kids just love unconditionally. We recently had a little girl and her new Mommy join our adoption fellowship group. "Diamond" at the age of 7 is being adopted by a beautiful woman in our group. It is an amazing story. During our fellowship at a park, they came joined and fit right in. Later I shared with my kids that until 5 days prior .. Diamond had no Mommy. Dakota who will soon be 7 had such an amazing response to her story!
Praying for you as you await the newest Prescott blessing!
