casa del sol.

Twice a week, I make my way down a dusty road to Casa del Sol. It is a center that provides a home for kids who have a difficult home situation or no home situation at all. They range from as young as a couple months up to 5th grade age. On Mondays and Wednesdays, Ellie and I volunteer in the baby room. Vanesa, Rosalba, Viane, Hilda, Jesus, Angel, Moi, and Jeremias all have my heart. We typically arrive just as they are waking up from their afternoon nap. Then we help feed them lunch, brush their teeth, clean their diapers, gel down their hair (the gel look is popular even at this age), and lead them to the playroom. Then begins the fun!

This past Wednesday was my final day volunteering. My camera tagged along and helped me capture some priceless moments of a few of the munchkins....
