I was very touched by your pictures, it reminded me of my mission trip of Rwanda two years ago. I was only 21 and did not have kids, but i certainly felt my yet to come mothering instincts kick in, there were so many orphans, refugees and poverty all around. Kids were fighting to hang on to my fingers, I literally had about 10 kids trying to hold my hand. It broke and still breaks my heart. I cannot wait to go back.
Have a safe trip and love as many children as you can while you are there.

Sincerely,

Liliet

Gabrielle, I’m wondering if you have access to any more info about sponsoring a child. I’ve been looking for a non-religious affiliated org, and I really like the firsthand perspective that you’ve given. When I go the maryjoy website, they have a section about sponsoring, but no sign-up info that I can find. If you happen to be able to direct me, that would be great.
thanks!

Gabby – please, please, please post about your visit to the Fistula Hospital. This is a subject near and dear to my heart and I am trying to save/plan for a trip to Somaliland next year to go to the Edna Adan Hospital. Thank you for making the time to elevate these issues. You are doing something I’ve long dreamed of – hopefully one day I’ll be there in Africa too. THANK YOU!

So true. And difficult to try and put words down without getting emotional.

The Ethiopians I’ve met are so proud of their gorgeous country — rightly so! I’m so impressed with the caring communities here.

Kids is kids. Amen. It’s a great reminder that all of us people started out pretty much the same: as kids.

I love how you put this. Off, you’re making me relive the hard parts again.

But enough with the false modesty about the dancing. You were a pro! And I have the photos to prove it.
