And the best is last BRIGHT FUTURE CHILDRENS HOME-NEPAL BRIGHT FUTURE CHILDRENS HOME I can not wait to see our babies, they are growing up so fast Krishala turned 11 last week and was so excited to get a cake and the traditional $2 gift which she put in her piggy bank. It is hard to believe that three years ago she came to us ravaged with Hep A and Anobic Dysentry and a product of the child slave market. How lucky are we that she is ours and she can now be a is child and loved by our house mother.
