We spent the day at a scholarship ceremony at the school, making bracelets, singing, dancing, giggling, interviewing, and taking Polaroids. We visited families around the village… I fell in love with Astha in 4th grade and her friend Rama….
Right at sundown we visited with a family of one of our girls Bipana, who lives with aunt and uncle-parents are gone . Aunt was wonderful-shared her dream was to learn to read but her eyes were too bad… We have her reading glasses! She was thrilled! She said she wanted her niece to be ” whatever she wanted to be”-made us all cry!
Another little girl had to leave for a 2 hour walk over the mountain to make it home-Purnima
