What I have seen...

Today was the first day the students actually showed up. My first class was preschool children. When I walked in I saw about 15 pairs of eyes looking up at me. They were curious, but very shy. I started going around the room shaking their little hands saying, "Hello Babies, my name is Ms, Carrie"  Their little eyes got bigger every time I said, Hello. A couple times while I was holding their hands I noticed many of them felt very hot. Little burning fingers. It must be fever. I have seen so much sickness here.
As I entered the class with the second group of preschoolers one little boy, in particular, caught my eye. He was so thin. He reminded me of those WWII Holocaust pictures I've seen in all my history books. He moved a lot slower then the rest of the children and he barely smiled at all. I have seen so much hunger here.
Today, we had enough money in our budget to feed everyone. So all the children got a big hot plate of rice and beans. Its good to see them eat.
Be careful any of you wanting to come visit Haiti. Once you have come here you can never again tell God you did not know......
