Happy Mother’s Day!!!!

I hope you will join all of us at Semillas de Amor in celebrating mother’s day. Friday we had a big celebration, live music by pianist Gaby Bailey, dancing, singing, food, and so much fun. The celebration brought tears to my eyes as I received a long stem red rose from each of the children. One of the dances the kids each had a letter that spelled out GRACIAS MAMAS and then when they turned around again the sign read GRACIAS MAMA NANCY. I can’t even put into words how special the day was. The difficulty of this work is equally as joyous and I feel blessed.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there and a very happy mother’s day to all the moms who are waiting for their children to come home from Guatemala. We truly hope they will be home soon.

This is a rather long video of our mother’s day celebration. I didn’t have the heart to edit anything out. This day was very special for me in may ways. I have had dreams of a music program, not only for our children at Semillas, but children living in Parramos. I was surprised with Gaby playing piano at the celebration. She played several songs, which were wonderful, but just seeing her, under a tree, playing piano brought tears to my eyes. The beginning of our music program. Enjoy the video and Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there.
