Pure Joy.

Tonight I lay my head down, a lot less weary.

I adore it here. No wonder most missionaries who come here, never leave. I get it. I really do. And I know that it is competely and utterly because of the simplest of things.

Like today when I was in charge of little Joshy on our trip to the eye doctor. Literally the cutest face you'd ever seen. I mean look at him, come on!


And then little Jane, who is utter joy! I say that while quite well knowing I have left out a huge chunk of her character...Jane is literally the weirdest child I have ever encountered. She is HILARIOUS! And also views me as the human jungle gym...which I'm not saying is a complete bad thing :)


Zeke is also pretty weird himself. I find myself describing most of the kids as odd, and it's really perfect with my own personality. Zeke likes to snort when he laughs, and I like to make fun of him. He's pretty awesome.


Then there's Jason, who has somehow in the past couple of days just completely stole my attention. He will come and plop down on my lap and is just the coolest dude ever. And to completely win me over, before bedtime tonight he grabs my faces, kisses me on the cheek and says, "Goodnight Auntie Kelsey!" and I suddenly know how it feels to fall head over heels.



To spare you from hours of pictures and boasting about how great these kids are, I'll try and wrap it up here and throw out praises of how good our God is. Like what? Who am I to be this incredibly blessed.

Pure joy, my friends.

Another post coming soon on how vigorously the Lord is moving. Thanks for your prayers and support, Care and I couldn't do it without you guys :)

-Kelsey
