Tuesday afternoon at the HueHue Home

After our program, we lined the girls up into the meeting room and one by one gave them their new socks and shoes. The smiles on their faces were incredible! They were so pleased to have pink and white shoes. I noticed that some boys got the tennis shoes with "blinking lights". They thought that was way too cool. After distributing the shoes, we handed the director the humanitarian aid products such as baby strollers, diapers, deodorants, more shoes and socks plus some baby medicines.

I sat and read to one child that had been given a deck of cards of "great heroes in the Bible". As we looked at each picture, we discussed why they were considered heroes. Several times, Esperanza (means Hope) would break into a song and sing about the story character. It was precious. Esperanza was so proud of her new pink tennis shoes, shoe glasses and all the little stuff we gave them. She came running up to me to show me her brand new shoes.
