This picture leaves me speechless every time I see it. I snapped the shot when I was coming in to church on Sunday. These lovely ladies are Dreamers at the House of Dreams. They all got new hair pretties and were happy to show me. You can click on it to see the original sized version.

Background of the pic: I took this pic on Monday, April 12, 2010 at the House of Dreams, our orphanage. His name is Yamil. He was watching my husband hold a baby.

After a 3D movie at the theater I took the kids to the bridge. This is a relatively new attraction here in Cochabamba. It connects the Cine Center with a lovely section of town called the Recoleta which are separated by a river and a highway. The Recoleta has bunches of good restaurants, ice-cream and coffee shops, a fountain, a beautiful church and a pedestrian walkway. The bridge is a great improvement to the city. We had a good time hanging out together.

There is a song we sang in church when I was a kid. It goes like this:

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases

His mercies shall never come to an end

They are new every morning

New every morning

Great is thy faithfulness oh, God

Great is thy faithfulness

The lyrics were taken from Lamentations 3:22-23. I always found it rather ironic that such encouraging lines are found in the unlikely collection of laments.

²²It is of the LORD’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not.

²³They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.
