The Orphanage

Milan had his second day in the orphanage and it is going well.  He usually teaches reading and math to Terrence when he first arrives, then they play with the little ones, feed them, play and put them to bed. Then the older ones have some play time of futbol (soccer).  

The older children have their responsibilities in the orphanage; cooking, washing, holding the babies, changing them, etc., before play.  This is a little bit tough for Milan as he is not used to the responsibilities of little ones...  Louis is the one that Milan is feeding in the picture. He is three years old and has some sort of paralysis of his lower extremities. He usually drags his lower body around on the floor with the good strength that he has in his arms. His mother abandoned him perhaps a year ago, and his father comes to visit him every so often in the orphanage. Louis is the happiest, most bubbly child there. His big brown eyes and huge smile just draw you to him. And, as Milan would tell you, he's the best eater!
