There are moments at the orphanage when you see incredible joy in the
children’s faces. Especially when they celebrate their birthdays. Some of them
never had that special day until they came here. Danielle and I add something
extra to the party. I prepare a gift that has become a tradition since we started it
about six years ago. It’s a photo booklet with pictures from their previous year
with us. Every child gets their personal story as a document that they matter. All
the kids rush to the birthday boy or girl when they get the booklet from us.
Unbridled joy.
