Where the other part of my heart lives

C4C recently posted this picture on social media and it made me so happy to see this vantage point of this little corner of the world that holds such a huge part of my heart, so I had to download it and document it here!
The yellow building is the guesthouse (where we sleep when we go there), the blue building is the medical clinic on the main level and houses the women's empowerment center - their sewing center and jewelry making supplies. Across the street where you see that green gate is the white building where our sweet girls live. That is the orphanage. That is their world right now. They rarely leave that white building, but if they do it is almost surely to go to the yellow or blue building.

It is such a surreal feeling to look at this picture and remember being just there. To look at the window in the orphanage that we held the girls and looked out together. To see the green gate we walked through dozens of times together...and to imagine the flood of mixed emotions there will be when we walk out that gate with them to bring them home with us.

I miss them so, so very much.
