hi dear, from my point of view you shouldnt force yourself and ur children to eat the food that that people were giving you, you could buy food for your family from a cheap restaurant, u can allways have chicken and manny good stuffs instead of waiting for a plate of rice from that people, and by the way if u have the chance to give 2 dollars instead of 1 for a pair of shoes to a small girl, give them, u will make her day happy, dont think so much for 1 dollar, if God would think so much when he wants to give us a gift he wouldnt give us anything in the end.
I apreciate your work , you are great but u should be more giving.

I’m loving reading your journal but I have to tell you I laughed at the bottle cap collection. I see there must be a kindred “spirit” of mine amongst you – who had the Guinness?

LOVE reading all the journals with the pictures! I’ll probably never go there myself so I like seeing it this way from someone I would trust! I hope you have a picture of how Leah looks when you take out the braids! You were very brave to go in first place!

Man, I’m having sensory overload reading about your day! Way to go Alex on finding the perfect price in bartering~ he’s a peacemaker!
I am so enjoying the photos, and am delighted when the email comes through that you have a new blog up.

I cannot even imagine trying to eat the meals you’ve been served.

Wow, talk about sensory overload! I was wondering how you got away without eating your food, now I understand! I remember someone standing over me making sure I drank their hot tea. I throw-up if I drink tea. I drank- therefore I ran!

I love that you are on day 5, but so sad to think it’s half way done already.
