I don’t think Cambodia has a limit when it comes to
surprises. Today I had the opportunity to visit the Russian Market. I was
incredibly overwhelmed by all the different sites and smells we encountered.
Everywhere I looked I saw either raw meat, or dead fish. Every breath I took
made my stomach turn. I was feeling kind of sick but the thought of the kids at
the orphanage being nourished for the day because of the shopping we where
doing, made it all better.
When we arrived orphanage, I was greeted by Jani, who had a beautiful
drawing she had made just for me. No words can describe the amount of happiness
that I felt in that moment. The fact that she took the time to make it just for
me makes me feel like I have a place in her heart, like she does in mine. Srai
Nite came along as well. She gave me a colorful little heart bracelet that
absolutely adore. Its little things like these that warm my heart.
In the four days that we have been working on the boys ‘ house,
we have made so much progress. It’s crazy how much we have done. We have all
been working really hard and everything is starting to payoff. I’m very exited
to see the finished product, but I’m even more exited that the boys are finally
going to have a place to call home.
