Everyday they ask us "Auntie, are you happy?" And everyday we reply, "Yes, we are happy, are you happy?" And of course they tell us they are very, very, very happy.
Their strength in life and in God inspires me to reach our and help more motherless and fatherless children. Children who have been through so much in life, yet still have so much love to give. It never ceases to amaze me!
As the days have gone on I have become attached to some of the children. I have developed favourites and I know it will be difficult to say goodbye to them.
My time at Amala has made me really appreciate the effort teachers have to put into teaching a lesson. However personally my biggest obstacle has been the language barrier.
All in all I do feel that they have learnt as much from us as we have learnt from them. I will really miss this place and the children I have developed relationships with and one day I do hope to return.
