About Rosy
Thanks for these!
Awesome, Rosy. That’s our boy, huh? So proud of him.
This is what helping is all about!! When I look at the photos of this trip I do not see the the color of ones skin, or the size of ones body, I see the beauty from within and love from the souls of them all. I dream of the day when I can hold all these motherless children, rock them to sleep while singing the songs my mother sang to me and that I sing to my children. You see we all have a reason to be here and that reason has nothing to do with who we are, has everything to do with what we can do….God bless you all!!
