It was a bit of a rainy afternoon when my husband and I, together with our daughter, Sophia went to an orphanage. I was trying to make the most of our time together because it was a day before I officially reported for school. Mango House Orphanage houses 15 adorable Filipino children. Mommy Ada, as the children call her, is the foundress of that lovely place . She's really sweet and cares for the children a lot. She's not from this country but she loves the children as if there's no difference in their skin color. She all treats them as if they are hers. The experience was grand because it was our family's first mission exposure together. My husband was so touched to see the children looking happy receiving their new bags and school supplies, which didn't really cost much. He felt guilty that he decided upon himself to really prepare for it next year. Well, I tried to collect funds through facebook but I guess we just lack ample time to look for more donors. I hope we could get more funds next year so we could offer something better to the children. All in all, it was a good way to open the school year (and to end my summer vacation)!
