Our cheeks were hurting from the grins we had as we pulled into those familiar gates of the orphanage and started seeing all of these cute little heads popping out from around the corners of doors. We were excited to see “our” girls again, and more importantly, to share the experience with the other on the retreat who traveled so far to help.

Some of the girls were actually away visiting with extended family during the holidays, so the girls that were left at the orphanage (~30 of them) enjoyed having visitors come specifically to spend time with them. And they were eager to have their first yoga class that day!
