its funny how the children at Hospicio de San Jose sing "Bahay Kubo". actually they are all very amusing when they sing any song. somehow, even if they don't get the lyrics right or sound "ngo-ngo", there's something in their voices that uplifts one's spirits.

i went there this afternoon to give out toys. it is always fun to play with or just spend time with children. over-all it was fantabulous! some of the kids are rowdy, some adorable, and only few were quiet and shy. they were all fascinated with the different toys.

i wanted to hug them all at once. they looked like they needed my tender loving care! i cannot imagine how a mother could ever leave her child. but then, i also understand that a lot of these children's parents cannot even get enough resources to feed themselves which leaves them with no other option.

if only more people took the time...what a better world ours could be.
