When I walked into the orphanage today, I saw the kids huddled around, and someone taking a picture of them. At first I didn’t realize what was different: then it hit me, they’d ALL shaved their heads! They all looked absolutely adorable! 
After we took some photos, the kids went upstairs, changed, and got their pens, pencils, and notebooks. I’d asked them to draw a self-portrait, and they all walked in with these incredible drawings, I was quite amazed! Today they did a self-introduction in Hindi, which ended up being more elaborate than the English ones, as they have a much vaster vocabulary in Hindi, and are definitely more confident in it. I am also a little overwhelmed with the sheer number of kids: all 26 boys, several in their teens. With my mother assisting, it’s a little better but we could use some help!
