45 Minutes Without Translation

Day 60 - December 10, 2021

I visited the kids today but because I am not given a translator and I cannot speak the language I didn’t understand what Auntie was saying to them. She sat in front of them in a chair while they sat on the floor in silence. She talked for about 45 minutes then we sang some songs at the end. I understood that part because they are practicing a song in English for Christmas. Sadly, I didn’t get to interact with the kids today other than telling them goodnight. It was still sweet because I love to hear their voices sing and express what they are feeling even if I can’t understand every word but I really love the days when I can sit and spend time with them or even enjoy dinner together or play games.
