Blutifully Human

As you all may know, I am currently raising funds to volunteer and serve at an orphanage in South Africa. What you all may not know is that there are actually 3 orphanages: Baby Haven (infants), Adler Haven (1-3 yrs old), and Child Haven (6-12 years old). I requested to work at Baby Haven, which is currently only accepting 4 volunteers (about 25 of us are attending).

I received confirmation today that I'll indeed be working at Baby Haven and I am SO excited about it! I honestly have a heart for all children. My current full time job even consists of working with children between the ages of 2-5 yrs old. But for some reason, as of lately I have had a really soft spot in my heart of babies. I'm not sure if it's the hormones, the biological clock, or just my innate nurturing disposition, but I just get so excited when I am around infants. Hopefully I won't feel inclined to bring one back home with me from Baby Haven.

I honestly cannot wait to go to Johannesburg at this point. I am truly looking forward to the experience and I know that it is going to be life changing in so many ways. It's going to be such a joy keeping you updated about all of it!
