Today's also been awesome. Our family was assigned to community outreach today. We helped plant trees at the Rising Star Gardens. Rising Star is trying to help the school become self sufficient. Instead of having to go the market to get food for the children, we planted all these fruit and vegetable trees so they can just go to the gardens to get the food. They also want food planted here because they won't be grown with any pesticides. So everything will be healthier for the kids. I think it's an amazing idea and it was cool to be apart of it! One of the directors turned to us and said, "isn't it soo cool that we're planting all of this for the kids?" It was so humbling to think about why we're here and who we're serving at all times. I know these kids will be soo happy and blessed because of the projects we get to help with. Take a look...
Sure do love my family.

We had play time as usual today! It's seriously my favorite time of day! We're all building awesome relationships with the kids the longer we're here.
Picture. of. the. day.
Sweet Praveen, the little boy I'm going to sponsor. He's only 5 years old. He just started learning English, so he doesn't speak much, but he's adorable because he always comes up to me and says, "me you play!" I adore him.
Playtime's nothing with painting nails.
This little boy wanted to paint my nails soo bad.
Funny thing about play time... girls' favorite question is if you have a boyfriend and if you're married. They love love.
