The Best Kind of Dirty

I love Monday nights because that's when I get to hang out with all my new friends in Fuente Circle. With each passing week, the kids are getting more and more comfortable with me being there. At first only one or two of the children would come near me, but now there are several who run up to greet me when they see me coming. In fact, tonight I actually had three little boys all fighting to sit nearest to me as they had their rice and vegetables. By the time I left, I was covered in dirt and my hair was a mess from one of the little girls trying to "style" it. I wouldn't have it any other way. I loved being dirty because that dirt was the result of my getting to hug and hold and love on these beautiful children. What a gift from God.
