The amazing....!!!

This is the amazing team 110. This is the greatest baby lovin', diaper changin', diaper foldin', dish washin', floor sweepin', baby feedin', baby burpin', team ever at Tutova. (please note: I could be a little prejudice about this.) It has been wonderful getting to know these gracious, sweet, loving people. We have all seemed to come together so easily as a team. We sometimes sit at dinner for more than an hour afterwards and just talk. We are getting to know each others stories one at a time. A woman whose father was actually raised in an orphanage his whole life. Her incredible husband who took the time to impact each child in his care. A man and his daughter, who have an incredible faith and just simply want to share it. A young couple who have so much to offer that it sometimes brings me to tears to realize that kids in their mid twenties could be so unselfish. A man with a heart so tender, he can easily cry at just a simple smile from "his" baby, and a business owner, who takes time out of her busy schedule to take care of babies. A woman, who in her lifetime had 5 children and adopted 5 more, with a heart so generous I feel as I've known her my whole life. A young man, quiet and shy who has the gentlest touch. I am experiencing life changing memories with new lifelong friends. they really are the best team ever!
