- The girls here at Beginnings are wonderful! They have been so accepting of us and helpful. Even though they tease us about being "farangs" they are so helpful with everything.
- Banana Rotice- If you EVER have the chance to try it, please do. Its amazing. I'm not really sure what's in it, but yum yum yum.
- Fruit- Mangosteens, Mangoes, Apples, fruits i've never even seen before, so cheap. We got an entire bag of mangosteen for less than $2.
- Learning bits and pieces of Thai. We are trying to teach the girls English, but it helps for us to know some basic Thai too. We've mastered, hello/goodbye, thank you, you're welcome, beautiful, and come here. Haha. Definitely a ways to go though.
- Seeing God make beauty out of ashes. The stories of some of these girls are so dark, and seem so hopeless but God has turned them around and made them beautiful. One girl, Jit, has found such peace and redemption in Christ that she hopes to go back to her home town someday as a missionary. These girls are incredibly resilient and joyful despite what they have been through. They have taught me so much.
Thats all for now! We're enjoying our first Thai thunderstorm right now :) Hope to hear from you all soon!
