A Touch of the Past, A Friend for the Future


Tonight the boys were able to Skype with a little friend who lived at the same center in Zamboanga. We'd been trying to set this up for the past month and it finally came together this evening. They loved getting to see their friend again. We had pictures prior to this and they've been able to tell us a lot from those about RSCC, the workers, the layout of the home and day to day living there.

I have to say it was a little overwhelming for Eli as he has become our thinker and was excited to see her and her family but he couldn't quite get out everything he wanted to say so he was a little frustrated but since we ended the call and have had supper, he's started in with the questions and reminiscing.

Lucas was a little envious of the big brothers their friend has (don't think they'd trade their sisters but would add a few brothers). He is our best information source about life in Zamboanga and details. Eli is more of the worrier about where all the children are that shared their lives for the past 5 years. Tonight's visit was really neat to experience, I hope we're able to have more of these visits.
