AND SO AUGUST BEGINS...
yesterday, august 1, began my birthday month. does anyone else believe in birthday months? i love it! haha. although i'm not getting spoiled everyday or (think dudley vernon) recieving 37 presents, i feel like celebrating everyday! :) you see, my family is made of four -- mom, dad, son, daughter. mom+daughter were born in august. father+son born in september. so birthdays come easy to us, right? :)
after church, upon my arrival back to our house, i went straight to my brother's bedroom to his desk. i sat down on his chair and got to business. i love his office chair! i feel so productive for some reason. possibly because my office chair is squishy, part rocking chair, and the kind of chair you just want to snuggle in with a good book, tea, and a blanket. a cat who is obsessed with laying on it is nice too.
i turned on a phil wickham playlist and knew exactly where to go -- compassion.com. browsing through all the children's faces, i couldn't decide on just one. just ONE? BUT moooom (insert your own version of a whiny teenager in here) i want to help them allll! instead of telling my mom about this tiny obstacle, i took a break, to a blog. not any blog (but yes, photography), but the every amazing kristen from washington. there are so many talented people up in the seattle/tacoma area! gahh. her images from when she was in south asia at an orphanage/refuge camp melted me.
after picking myself up from my melt-y, butter-y, heart-in-pieces state, i restarted my searching and refined it to only south asian females. although a month ago, i would've thought i wanted a female around my age, the youngest child's face wouldn't get out of my mind. and so i chose her.
4 years old. female. from Thailand. loves telling stories, art, and playing dolls.
