Giving heart

Bitterballen, speculaas, klompen, windmolen, oliebollen, Sinterklaas & Zwarte Piet... off we went to Christmas Around the World by IES Orphanage  to represent Netherlands. Who could've thought you can go around 9 countries (Japan, China, India, Slovakia, Netherlands, USA, South Africa, Italy & Phillipine)  in less than 3 hours? 200 kids from 3 orphanages did on a cloudy Sunday. Thank goodness for a windy day otherwise the windmill will not work.

It was a great day. Everybody had a great time even baby Zoe! I thought we were the blessing for the orphanage kids, but turned out that it was the kids who gave us joy &  happiness. Now I understand the true meaning of the phrase "It is in the giving that you will receive". Happy giving!
