What a wonderful day! Today we got to celebrate the birthday of one of the children in our room at Shishu Bhavan! Because of this joyous occasion the Sister allowed us to take pictures of the kids during the birthday party! (we are planning on developing a good chunk of the picture that we took so that they can decorate the room with updated pictures of the kiddos). So here is a little sneak peek for you all of the little (well some of them big) bundles of joy that I get to play with every day! I am not going to go into much detail about each kid in this post, this is just to give you all a little glimps of the goofballs so when i mention then in future posts you can have some faces to names! Enjoy!
Ryah the birthday girl!  With all of her goodies!! Let me tell you, the Sisters (and Masi's) know how to throw a good party!
  Oh my goodness. This one is a heart breaker! Ronit (or pronounced Rony). Every day when we walk into the room this kid just lights up with the biggest smile. You can never have a bad day when Rony is around. Such a huge heart and a contagious bundle of joy. (yes, i want to bring him home with me. He is the one that I spend countless hours laughing with every day! BAH!)
Andeep. Love this kid. 
Mita! Possibly the cutest kid of them all. Mita is blind (she has no eyes) and she has the biggest personality. This girl is like a human stretchy band. She can model herself into any shape (aka she can cross her legs behind her head). She likes to do head stands as well! She is also one of the best cuddlers around! Mita is my girl when it has been a long day. We just sit and hum songs together. 
Amrit. He is the cutest trouble maker you will ever see. Cant ever take your eye off of him.
Oh Rinku. Rinku is 15 years old. And most of the time.. she acts like a 15 year old. She thinks she can get whatever she wants. She also has a huge heart and everyday when I walk in and say good morning to her, she grabs my hand and give me a kiss. And everyday and we pass by her bed to leave, she blows us kisses. 
Love me some Masi's. It is great getting to know these women and actually laugh with them. Even though half the time it looks like they are mad at the world or the kids, they really do deep down inside love the crap out of these kids and would do anything for them.
I hope you all enjoyed this sneak peek of my new friends! 
I hope all is going well in your lives! It gets pretty lonely sometimes over here on the other side of the world! If you have free time I would love to hear how things are going in your life! (shoot me an email!)
