New York City

Today while Karl and Luke were working in the church office I decided to play with the children from the orphanage. We were playing Frisbee and having a blast when the boys came and took over our (the girls) game. The girls were bummed so I decided that we were going to paint our nails. Now some of the girls already had their nails painted, but when I got out my nail stuff they all gathered and were amazed at all the colors of nail polish that I had laid out before them! Now the nail polish I had was a collection dated back from my high school years, so some of the colors were just a bit bizzar, but nonetheless so much fun. The last color I pulled out was red….” I want to look like New York City”, “Can you paint me like New York CIty too?” I heard from all around me. I looked at them and asked them what they meant, and they said that everyone in New York City has red fingernails. I told them that not everyone did, but they were not believing me. So after about 45 minutes of painting every girl’s nails we all looked like New York City :)
On another note; Luke’s dad and a team from our home church in Danville, NH are flying down to Florida this afternoon. They will spend the night in Florida, and then venture their way to Haiti tomorrow morning. Please pray for safe travel and open hearts for this team. There are some people on the team who have not been to Haiti before! Please pray for them too! Thanks guys, you are all so great! Love to all :)
