Mexico Day 22 - Cute Kids.....

So it's been twenty-two days in Mexico and I haven't posted a single picture of the cute kids here so I figured this was necessary. Today we took a trip to La Casa Hogar del Norte for work projects and after we finished everything on the work site we had some down time to chill with some of the kids which was super chido and this is what happened....

I thought it was just the cutest thing that he was actually sitting IN the chalk basket playing with the chalk.  Obviously he could sense the artistic aroma permeating from my natural aura so he offered me a piece of chalk.


























For some reason the Lion King theme song plays in my head every time I look at this picture of Angel. He fervently climbed time and time again to the top of the slide only to sit on his bottom for quite awhile observing everything around him and eventually sliding down on his belly. Why don't they make slides like this for adults?

Daniel took off his normal glasses and traded them in for some safety glasses to help us out with the work that we had already finished for the day. Unfortunately he has terrible vision and probably would be more of a help with his normal glasses on rather than off. He is probably one of a select few kids from all the homes that are so cute that even if they were to punch me square in the face I'd probably just say, "Hey don't do th....awwww look at his missing teeth." We had a reading time a little bit before play time and I had the privilege of seeing this dude in action and lucky guess: he's just like me. More pictures = more fun.

  1. They are all adorable! Is Angel always so serious? I hope he belly laughs every once in awhile. Everyone needs to.

    Praying for you, Nate!

  2. I know those kids think you rock, because we all know you do :) I can't believe it's been almost a month. I'm so glad skype was invented so I don't miss you as much. It sure is quiet without you here but I know God is accomplishing His work in you in Mexico. Praying daily for you. I love you!
