My Cambodia Top 10!

#10......diapers are not a option :)

#9........things are cheap

#8.....all the people on this trip are waaaaayyyyyy cool.

#7......my hand is constantly held and these people love to hug :)

#6......This place makes me feel totally and utterly complete.....I hope this is 1% of what heaven will feel like.

#5.....These students are brilliant at cutting hair....we may be on to something ;)

#4......being on the same "page" with my husband. Watching God flow through everything he says and does makes me smile. He is sooooo on purpose.

#3......watching my daughter become who God planned her to be, even before she was born. I love standing back and watching her love on these girls...no matter the fear of lice or whatever...she doesn't care about that...she just knows she is in love. Watching her with the boys and wrestling with them as if she were with her own brothers.

#2......money does not create happiness here.

#1......watching my daughter tear up as she was getting baptized in dirty river water in a homeade fish pond.

How else would I ever feel and see the love of God? How else could I ever feel more complete?

Oh yeah......if there were a number off the charts.......it would be Sokum and The Mai. Standing back and watching their passion and smiles for these people is truely humbling. It's not about the car they drive......the clothes they wear.....everything is to bring glory to God. Their smiles of gratitude and joy as they watch us with their people....it is sincere and pure in it's purest form. I swear, they are like modern day bible people.

I love this place......you should come. :)
