Crafty Kiddos

Last week, Ashley's mom Karen came to Liberia to visit, along with Jake, who goes to Ashley's church in Atlanta. Some of their time was spent working at Danny Feeney, the new orphanage that we're building for 37 kids who are currently squatting in a deteriorating building that was once a radio station. (You can read more about the project on our blog.) The rest of the time, though, they were at orphanages, participating in the Child Development Program. They brought fun and colorful foam crosses for the kids to decorate with stickers, markers, stick-on jewels (which the kids call "shine"), and glitter glue (which is called, funny enough, "shiny-shine.") Below are some favorite pictures from the week--thanks Karen and Jake (and Ashley) for the great photos!
