We spent some of Sunday afternoon at the Crisis Orphanage; where babies are brought that either have lost parents, or a parent can’t take care of them just yet.
I have a one month old in my arms, and 2 1/2 year old Blackstone took to Steve. Blackstone was undercared for as an infant and is way behind in developement. He is just trying to walk, is not verbal, but can sure smile!
We took plastic pants and will return with some blankets, because when a child gets a home, they send them with a blanket!

I would love to have been there to help hold those babies!!!! 🙂 You mentioned Blackstone who took a liking to Steve, but you didn’t mention the name of the 2 month old in your arms….:-) Sending prayers that God will provide homes for these special children!
How do you hold those babies and not want to just bring them home with you?! It brings me heartache to know they are without their mommies (*tear, tear*)!!
Love your babies! The mural looks awesome.
[…] If you remember earlier in my trip, I visited the Crisis Nursery and fell in love with all the babies waiting for homes. Well, I got out the information on how to contact Mwawi and give her a hug from MOMS only to find out that she is in charge of the nursery, but hadn’t been there the day I had visited. […]
