 A few of us were walking down the road from the orphanage and there were two men, one of which was carrying a tiny little baby, heading toward the orphanage.  We stopped to talk to them and they said they were bringing her in.  I guess the mother had passed away.  Later, when we got back to Open Arms, we asked to see the new baby and they told us where to find her.  Her name is Julita and she is the smallest baby I have ever seen in my life!  She held my finger and her little hand is the size of my finger tip.  She looks like a newborn preemie, but they said she is at least 3 months old...too cute!  There is also another new baby named Priscilla.  She is just a little bit bigger than Julita.  I love all of the children here...They are so sweet and so much fun.  My favorite baby is named Rose.  She is 10 months old and just the sweetest thing ever.  She is so laid back, never cries, and is really cuddly!  I love her so much!!
