We are soooo happy to be back with the children from Stone Lion. They don’t get as many visitors as some of the other orphanages we travel to, so they were pretty excited to see us too. All the older kids remembered us from our trip in September.

Today the advocacy team got to spend the morning with the babies and who doesn't love the babies?! We played with bubbles. We read books. We cuddled. We helped them walk. We fed them lunch. Then it was nap time and we parted ways.

Today the Advocacy Camp Team visited the children of Changsha #1 Social Welfare Institute. We received a tour of the facility where we were able to see the therapy floor and learn about the rehabilitation program they have in place. It was so interesting and we loved getting to see first hand what they are doing here to help children reach their maximum potential. It was clear how dedicated the leadership is to these children, not just to meet their basic needs, but to help improve their medical conditions so that they can be successful in life.

It just never gets old. These sweet faces. These giggles. Babies that we saw last trip that are now toddling around. Toddlers that are now longer and leaner… and talking like crazy. Their confidence and personalities blooming more and more each trip. Elementary aged kids that amaze us with their silliness and growing math skills.
