About two weeks ago, we received a little boy and girl from the Government orphanage in Chiang Mai. The little boy is 11 months old and has been in the orphanage for 10 months prior to being at Agape and needs lots of prayers as he's struggling to adjust to how things are at Agape. He is such an adorable little boy but is a little insecure and always wants to be held. It's so hard to try and not hold him every time he cries, but it's so much better for him to know that we love him in other ways and that we want to give him lots of attention without him being held 24/7 than for him to feel he has to cry to get attention.
The little girl also is having a bit of a difficult time in adjusting. She's about 3 years old and is right about the age that most people start having memories that they carry into adult-hood so it's been a rough road for her so far. She has a wonderful laugh but doesn't bless us with it too often yet. Please just pray that she will feel safe at Agape and will see how much we all want the best for her so she knows that everyone here is very willing to love her for everything that she is!
