The week at OLTCH in photos

This past week I had the privilege of spending nearly every day, all day, at OLTCH orphanage. I hung out with the kids so much and had such a special, joyful, rejuvenating time. These kids bring me so much joy!!

 Daika colored me lots of pictures!
"Alo??" ;)

Baby Elijah at this point in time was YANKING on my hair.

 Felo! 
 Ella Grace! She was sick all this last week but is feeling better. :)
 The team added on to Jasmine's (the orphanage owner) little house!
 Lowenski- a boy who, when we first met, was very wary of me, but now is attached to me at the hip and will defend me in front of all of his teasing friends!
 My main man (the boy who I have bonded with most) Manu (nickname for Emmanuel: "God With Us")!! Love his beautiful face.
 Me and my closest orphanage buddies.
 There's a smile that would light up the dark!! :)
Rodner colored me a picture! He is the most intelligent, soft-hearted, thoughtful boy. His family came to see him this week, for which he was ECSTATIC about!! I loved seeing him follow his mommy around; so happy. :)
 Teehee! Valencia. :) She loves calling my name ("Betani!!") and then just grins at me with nothing to tell me. ;)
Ella Grace napping

YAY!! It loaded!! One of the most special moments of the week: William out of nowhere starts singing Mighty to Save as we color. And we all joined in. :) 
"Forever, He can move a mountain, my God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save!!" Haha ;) Love how they kind of made up their own words. Beautiful children!!
