Dear Justin and Amber,
Thank you so much for your patience as I have been ordering the chaos of notes, pictures and information that was my trip to Ethiopia J I loved being there with all of the children, but I know that families love to hear about their individual child, so I have been writing up a little on each of the 65-70 children at Hannah’s Hope and that is mainly what took so much time. I hope that your Easter was blessed, and here is another thing to help keep the joy of this last weekend going!
Your girls are so funny! Both of them have these vibrant personalities that had me smiling and laughing all week. M seemed like she was everywhere, playing here and then there, with this toy and then that one, with this child and then that child, and then climbing in my lap and then running off to the swings…she has so much energy! But she is so sweet—she was always so smiley and I only saw her cry about once or twice, and it was when someone else took a toy that she had really wanted to play with. B (who likes to go by Betty) was one of the children who was glued to me whenever I was at HH. She loved to hug and kiss me, and snuggle up beside me when I would be sitting. She also loves to pose! I think you can see it in her pictures—there is this one pose she always wanted to do when I had the camera out—get ready for your little diva . Both of the girls were so good at playing with others, at respecting the special mothers and staff, were great eaters (M can feed herself really well) and I so enjoyed being with them!
Thank you for allowing me to love on them while I was in Ethiopia!
Grace and Peace,
Christy PenneyEthiopia Case Manager
