New Day Kids - Then and Now

Can you believe May marked 5 years that the first kids came to New Day Orphanage??? I don't always feel like time has flown around here, but when I look at their faces, I must admit it has! Here is a glimpse of our New Day Kids - from the first day of their arrival to today. The pictures are in order of their arrival at New Day!

Muchoni - age 11

Misheck - age 10

I have to say something about Mweene - he is the NEATEST kid, but he does NOT like to smile! He is witty and super smart, but hates the camera. :)

I promise she is a happy child, but she was in her "supermodel pose"! :)
