Heey folks!!
Lauren blogging again!! Wow today was a hard day for me. I believe my mom mentioned I was in LOVE with this little One and 1/2 year old(shown in picture.) Well he's very ill.... Has red bumps all over him and bruises! Today was his second day and he did not enjoy it. His mother staied alittle while when he first arrived an he was perfectly fine. But as soon as his mother left he started crying. At that point I felt so bad for him(also two other new girls arrived very sad who I also felt bad about...back to my story) some other people tried and tried to calm him down but he cried and cried. Finally I asked for him!! Me and him hit it off as soon as he was in my arms! He stopped crying! He started eating playing and sleeping... I was soo pleased, but as soon as I put him back in his crib he cried(I had to plug my ears it broke my heart!)
When I returned there again today I was looking and looking for him! When I finally found him he had red dots all over him and crying. I picked him up but he still cried! I started singing he stopped for a few moments, then I stood up and walked around he was fine after that...but he would NOT let me sit or anything I HAD to be walking with him clinging on to my left shoulder.
When I left again today he cried!! It broke my heart again!! I couldn't believe how attached we both got!!! I will always remember him!! I'll be praying for him for many years and I ask u do as well!
As for what were doing tomorrow... I'm very nervous. The mission trip leader told the group the little kids we saw today are very lucky compared to the kids were seeing tomorrow I'm very nervous,... So please pray for me as well and the children I'm seeing!!(actually I ask u pray for all the unprivileged children tonight or tomorrow.. The honestly need it!)
Tonight I pray and thank god for many things!!! I bless you all!!!
Thanks soo much for making this possible
Lauren.

Grandma HI Lauren, Yes, I guess people in London did feel the earthquake but we didn't here. Cameron and Ali were here for the day. In the picture the little fellow - name? - does look content. But what were the red dots??????? Yes, I'll be praying for you as you work/play with these children. It is surely quite an experience but I know the Lord will bless what you are doing. I am sure Grace is missing you too but she is fine. I am off to pilates now and tonight we are going to the Lake Erie Hotel for dinner with friends. Love you. I am always checking the blog for something new.
Rebecca Hi Lauren and Sara - I just read your blog and you sound so wonderful Lauren even though you have had a tough time leaving this little boy. I will pray for for all of the children! I am so proud of you Lauren and I thank God that you and Gracie are in my life. Love to you and your mom! xoxoxo
