let's go fly a kite...

Kenyon and I recently attended a kite flying event at a local children's home. The children are orphans, but the center is set up unlike most orphanages. Children at this site live with a family in an actual home. The house parents raise the children as their own. Each home is assigned approximately 5 kids. They often hold community events at the site - cultural shows and things like this kite flying event. People from the community come to the center for the events and the children who live there get to be kids who are part of a larger community network. It's a novel concept. I attended for no other reason then it seemed like a fun thing to do on a Saturday morning. I really liked watching the kites fly and the kids have so much fun.


This guy had to rescue his kite from a tree.

Just another Saturday morning in the country of endless summer. How are you liking the snow in your town? Ready for spring yet?
