About two weeks ago we had a little girl about 3 years old come to the orphanage, what a little ball of fun she was. Sometimes she would just run up to me and attack me with a hug. Then little T and her had a blast together, but got each other in so much trouble sometimes.
Her uncle had been raising her for the past few years, but since her indian mother left her with him and took off without signing any guardianship paper; The government took her away from him, and sent her here. Then another organization got involved and located the mother, put her on a boat and brought her here, and the judge court ordered Ali back to her mother, a woman she hardly even knows. All of us are sad she is gone, and a little upset she wasn’t able to go back with her uncle, but can only pray for her future. Because only God knows her future, all we can do is do his work, pray, and hope that things will get better.
