So we are having a GREAT time with the kids at the Houses of Hope! The kids are seriously such a fun group 
We have made crafts everyday, sung songs, played games in the sun, and gotten tons of hugs…we’ve even had our hair braided numerous times! They have all LOVED the friendship bracelets too…We sat them down and told them how we told our friends about them and that that’s who made the bracelets for them! Needless to say, they were so excited…we had so many bracelets that most of the kids got one on each wrist or an ankle too. We have been trying to document as many of them as possible but here are a few to start with
Thanks again for sending your love with us to these kids…they need it!

It is just as cool to see the bracelets on the little arms of those kids, as I thought it would be! Thanks for posting, I see a couple of mine in there, and a couple of my friends. I hope you read/gave them that letter that I wrote to them too!
Glad to hear it has brought a lot of joy to them, and that you guys are having fun doing crafts etc.
<3 love love love!
