I'm sorry I haven't written in so long. You see my days have been very busy- mostly with helping Romanian orphans tie friendship bracelets, or getting my butt kicked in basketball games. But I haven't forgotten you- No! I've thought long and hard about what to write- should I recall the events of my day, like when Ana, the older girl living at the orphanage asked me about how God could be our shepherd and what Psalm 23 meant... or the story of how little Nico and Vic ran away from their gyspsy family and traveled over 100 miles by foot and hitchhiking to find a better life... or do I mention the 18 year old boy with cerebral palsy who has spent his entire life in a hospital crib, unable to move the smallest of muscles...so much to say and so hard to really express what's been going on here...
So over the next few days I'll try to fill in the gaps, with stories and photos of Mr. I and my trip here to Romania. But please be patient with me- I want to do these stories- and these kids- the justice they deserve and tell their stories correctly.
Thanks for still hanging out here- I hope the wait will be worth it!
