Buna Ziua!!

Buna from Alexandria again!! I am getting closer and closer to the girls at the orphanage and the girls on my team each day. I have become quite attatched to a girl named Elena. She is 14 years old and likes to make fun of me when I try to speak Romanian. She also likes to teach my Romanian words and sing to me and dance with me to her singing. She has made me 8 friendship braclets so far, and she has written me two notes. Both of her notes have said things like She loves me and she wants me to know that Jesus loves me too. She likes to hang out with me and she likes it when we play together with the ball or jump ropes. She thinks of me like a big sister. I also think of her as a little sister. I love her very much. I have written her two notes so far and made her a few bracelets as well. There are so many wonderful girls at this orphanage I just wish we could do more for them. It is crazy to see how they are treated by the older girls and by the supervisors/teachers. It is actually really sad. Today we finally get to take pictures of them. I probably won't get to put them up until i get back to the Team House on like the 26th of this month but that is okay. When I am at the Tean House again I will also be putting up most of my journal on my blog. I love Romania so much. Please just keep these girls in your prayers. And although I havent said much please keep these girls especially in your prayersElena, Mariana, Fina, Mimoza, Lula, Florentina, Flori, Mirella, Corinna, Iouana, the other Iouana, the other Iouana, the other Florentina, Alexandra, Cindila, Anisouara, Claudia, Georgiana, and DeBuy. That is just a handful of the girls that I can think of right off the top of my head, but please keep them in your prayers. They all need it. Thank you so much for all your love and support!!!
