Waiting For Ava

“But these things I plan won’t happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow, be patient! For it will surely take place. It will not be late by a single day.” Habakkuk 2:3

Visiting a local village today

After visiting a local village today I can honestly say that we are all spoiled rotten. Our guide told us that our children could have come from a village much like this one. The local people were so nice and so happy. The children loved the candies that we were handing out. We handed out the rest of the Beijing Olympic pins that we brought. They loved them. One man who I had given a pin to came back to the bus as we were leaving at gave the pin back to one of the babies on the bus. The village market was certainly something to see. We watched people do laundry. We watched people sell things at the local market. Lots of children running around.
