When we got back from visiting Celine and David at the hospital, we saw the cutest little bunch. Clara, James, Carl, Joshua, Libby and all the other kids in room 115 were lined up on this tiny little balcony waiting for all of the volunteers to arrive. They had been through the whole day without any excitement while we were gone. We took pictures of them as long as we
wanted to. They would just look through the bars and stare at us while they said hello in Chinese and laughed hysterically. Even James though we were amusing. That sight was the most beautiful thing in the world. I have never been able to see so many children smile in just one month. Another month is beginning. The time went fairly fast, but also fairly slow. I will never forget the first few days when all I had to eat was nuts and all I could do was sleep. It is all worth it. I have adapted here and I never want to leave,
I know dad, it is probably not what you wanted to hear...
but the experience is also not what I expected either.
I want to thank my family for all their support. My mom, my dad, my brothersand sisters, my friends and (of course) my Grandparents.
