CHINA - XIAN



This little guy is Nick. He has a hair lip but not a cleft palette. He can be a serious little man but loves to smile. He has such a smooth head with barely a wisp of hair - I think of him as the Buddah baby. There is something about his face that seems old & wise. A few of the babies look like that - it's as though they have a huge depth to them, almost as though they have been here before & know a lot more than us.

Today we had a few visitors - one of them was Helen who is from England & is here teaching English at a middle school. For those of us that don't know what a middle school is (which includes yours truly) it's apparently children - or rather teenagers - from about 15 - 18 years old.

Amanda called before with some exciting news. She was out at the bank & was dropping by the new Baskin Robbins & wanted to know what she could get me. Over the moon I was until she went into the store & said they weren't actually open until tomorrow!

So tomorrow I'm gonna get me some cookie dough icecream!!!!!
