Slacker

I haven't felt like blogging lately... but then a couple of the Children of the World stayed with us last week so I have something exciting to talk about.
We had the privilege of having Sharon (10) from Uganda and Charie Rose (9) from the Philippines stay with us for 5 nights.
They are the sweetest girls ever. We had a great time with them and I was sad to see them go this weekend. They are on the West Coast team, so we probably won't see them until the tour is over in June. :(
I got so SPOILED while they were here. The girls love to do dishes and every night would ask if they could help! Could you say 'No' to these faces?!
They also loved to help cook. (They posed themselves for the pictures)

We talked to my mom on Skype one night and they performed a few of their songs for her. Sharon said my mom is "so cute."

I had a birthday while they were with us and they were so excited to "rejoice" with us. They even decorated my cake.
They love to give hugs and kisses!
"Happy Birthday Auntie Carrie..."
Mmm.... cake and ice cream (Brownie Moose Tracks ice cream to be exact, my new fav).
I miss these girls already!!!

It wasn't just a "few" songs. It was a whole concert!! I could not stop smiling-their joy is contagious.
I was glad we got to meet them when we visited so they felt they knew us and enjoyed our SKYPE visit.
