Haiti Day 7

Had a horrible night last night, Melissa and I were up and down sick most of the night and morning. Chris, Brock, and Whitney we are all sick this morning too. Drank some water, took some meds and went to meet up with Pastor Jude to travel through the town near the church and children’s home. We split up into three groups, four people gave their lives to Jesus today!  So amazing! Had a lot of fun at one of the tent villages. Ashton ran around and the children chased her, while Melissa and I blew bubbles for them. It was amazing to see the children’s faces; I’m sure some of them had never seen bubbles before. Some wanted to blow their own. I even had a couple of adults who wanted to give blowing bubbles a shot. They were amazed to see bubbles actually come out when they blew it. Spent about two hours walking and witnessing, and then headed back over to the children’s home. Spent several hours there. Got to play with all the children one last time. Chris and Mama played and I fed WaNelson. Those children were the two that Chris and I spent the most time with. I cried the hardest I think I have ever cried when I had to leave WaNelson! It was a little easier for Chris, Mama fell asleep in his arms and he laid her down in the bed. Though I'm sure hard for her. Because when she awakes we will be gone. I will keep those two children in my heart and prayers always. We made a last trip up to Andrea’s orphanage; kids were so excited to see us. Lovely was very excited to see everyone, she is the one that gave us all tattoos earlier in the week. Chris was holding a little girl named Shada, and Daniel another little boy got jealous and told her to get down that Chris was his! Oh and all the children kept calling Brock Santa Claus and father Abraham because of his beard. Today has been hard most of us have been sick. Its  probably because all the Haitian food finally caught up with us. We  had a minor car accident on the way back to the house. A motorcycle ran slap into the back of our truck. Nobody was hurt, and wrecks happen often, due to there being no traffic laws. We made a stop at Bel-Mart on the way home to get cold drinks. Came home to brown rice and beans, chicken legs, salad, and fresh squeezed mango juice. All I could stomach was the salad, rice and juice. Going to start packing for tomorrow morning our plane leaves Haiti at 8:50 am. Very excited about seeing my children tomorrow, I have missed them so much!
