The children at the Vineyard, Gainesville wanted to connect with the children in Nicaragua so they decorated some flip flops to give to those without. These children are holding a photo of the child in Gainesville who decorated the flip flops.

This was one of the 1st pairs we gave away. Thank you Vineyard Children! |

Angela, one of the nanny/s I worked with at the orphanage brought some of her extended family with me to help. It was great to see local children reaching out to other locals in need. |

She was so happy to get them that she ran off and left the old ones in the same place! |
|
She ran off into the distance and just left them there! |

Angela and I became close friends whilst working at the orphanage together for 3 years. Her son, Angelito just celebrated his 1st birthday |
|
and got his 1st pair of flip flops!!! It was wonderful to see that something so simple could bring so many smiles! |
|
This little guy was so cute! But we did not have any flip flops left. |
|
Wish we had just one more pair for her... |
|
Sorry we had none left. We will come back with more. |
