We went rolling into Cathwel on our first morning in Taiwan last week, all excitement with just a few nerves mixed in. It had been 4 years! Would we still remember what we needed to do? How long would it take us to hit our stride? Then 2 little ones came in. They were both around 3-4 years old. Both absolutely adorable. I saw Nancy pull out a screening sheet and start getting the matching toys out. I knew we were back for real and we were going to be just fine.

It’s hard to believe that our time seeing children is over. We met 54 children between Cathwel and Chung Yi. They were all children we had never met in person.

What a pleasure to walk in to see the people here at Chung Yi that we haven’t seen for 4 years! There were many new faces - time certainly brings changes, but it is good to be back!

As we prepare for our Superkids trip in just over a week, we thought it would be fun to share about a few of the children we are expecting to meet with each day of our trip! If you’ve been following our Superkids blog for a while, these may be some familiar faces.
Our first day, Monday, Oct. 30th, we will be at our partner agency Cathwel’s office and children’s home. We are planning on meeting approximately 20 children throughout the day!
We are excited to meet sweet little Jessica in the morning! We’ll also be meeting with Joey who recently turned 3 years old. Later in the afternoon we’ll get to spend some time with Janet.
We are looking forward to learning more about each of the children we’ll be meeting – their favorite toys, their favorite (and maybe more fun, their least favorite) foods, and other fun facts. We also will be speaking with their caregivers and social workers to get a better understanding of their medical and development needs.
Make sure you are following our PRIVATE Facebook group – as we hope to post photos throughout our time in Taiwan! If you are interested in learning about any of the waiting children, please email us at Superkids@gladney.org. We’ll respond to all emails when we are back from our trip.
