Sad Africa Story

Katelyn is home! But here is a sad Africa story :(

(Fiona)

On Saturday a little girl and I played tag and duck duck goose and ring around the rosey. She just held on to my hand the whole time – even when she got separated during the game she would run and grab my hand again. Her name is Fiona and I’ve never felt so much love so instantaneously. When it was time to go I told her I would see her later. She said, “When can I see you again!!” I told her to come back tomorrow. On Sunday after church we were sitting outside and there were a bunch of children outside the gate of our hotel. So a few of us went to play with them. Fiona found me immediately and latched on to my hand. She sat down and she just sat on my lap holding my hand. The she leaned in and whispered, “my mom and dad are far away. I live with my aunt …..she beats me. I don’t like her. Will you take me back to America with you and be my mother?” It literally broke my heart. I haven’t seen her since Sunday, but I look for her everyday just praying that I see her.
