Robleato Children's Home Christmas Party

Every year the students of our school throw a Christmas party for the children of a local children's home. This is kind of like a foster home in the states. The hope is for the children to be reunited with their families. We went and visited Roblealto about a month ago. It is up in the mountains. Their are 9 homes and each home has about 10 children and house parents. Their is a school on site as well. We had lunch with them and they loved our kids. They couldn't keep their hands off Jesse's blonde hair, I can't blame them!! Their was one little boy that really stuck with us and talked to us a lot his name was Diego. I got to see him at the party and he ran over and gave me a big hug and kiss. Their was also another little boy that stole my heart he came up to me and a friend of mine and wanted to give us some of his candy that he had won. Of course we said No, but he really wanted to share with us, kind of his way of saying Thank You. We both had to hold back the tears, to see someone with nothing want to share the little they have. This is a picture of him getting his present. We had the gym set up like a carnival and they all got to go around and play different games and they got their face painted, ate supper, we had 4 pinatas and then the big finale was getting their presents. Every student picked a child to buy a gift for.
