The mission of Semillas de Amor Children's Village is to provide care, high-level education, and solid futures for Guatemala's at-risk children. In addition to consisting of a home for children who are unable to remain with their families, plans for the children's village include a school, a clinic, and a daycare facility for working mothers. The facility is in the early stages of construction. We are currently seeking donors and volunteers interested in helping make this dream a reality.
Wednesday, February 6th, we celebrated Carnaval with costumes, cascarones filled with confetti and pizza. Tradition is that the kids hollow out eggs, fill them with confetti, cover the egg with colorful tissue paper and then break the eggs over each others heads. As you can see by the photos the kids loved smacking each other over the head with the eggs and then later dined on pizza. It was a fun day for all for everyone.

Love the new Pictures and the Costumes are too cute....I have been following your BLOG long enough now to see the children growing up right before our eyes. My 2 year old adopted from Guatemala watched your slide show with me and said AHHH and PLAY it was so sweet. Hugs
Nancy,
The wait to get our little girl home is horrible but it makes the wait so much easier to see how well she is being cared for. Thanks again for all the extra you and the nannies do.
