Besides getting to see them perform 3 times, by far the best part was having 3 of the boys and one of the chaperone's stay at our house.
Its been 2 years since I've been to Africa and lately my heart has been itching for it and so having 3 little Africans in my house was just the thing that it needed. Even though their stay was so short, I fell in love with them and was so sad to see them go and will miss coming home to their big smiling faces.
Having them here reminded me of why I love Africa so much. I mean i love Africa for so many reasons but one of the biggest reasons is the kids. And seeing these kids who have come from places I can't even imagine and who have seen things my eyes will never see and have absolutely nothing, but yet have more hope than i do and have faith beyond their years, it is absolutely amazing and it just gives me so much hope and reminds me of my passion and why i love Africa so much.
What i really want to do is quit my job and hop on a bus with these guys and finish off their 7 months of tour but thats not realistic right now and so thats not going to happen. But the plans are definitely swirling in my head and hopefully its not long before I get to go back to Africa and maybe even do something with Music for life/African Children's Choir.
To finish it off heres a picture of my 3 sweet boys

they're so great! and i miss them already! i wish they could have stayed longer. :(
but let's take what we felt and were reminded of when we were with them, and use it. let's share our faith, hope and joy with others - just like they did with us.
Thanks for sharing the special memories and photos of our sweet boys. They bring a huge smile to my face!
nice shirt.
