I love this picture, for a couple of reasons.
As you know I love butterflies, I loved being in Africa
and the day I was blessed by this beautiful young girl.

I brought a bunch of these butterflies with me on my trip to Botswana, with the idea of sharing them. On the day before leaving to return to the US, I thought I would stick them in my backpack so I could give them out.
To much of my surprise, As I gave them out to a group of children this young girl began to sing a song with a little dance in her step. When I asked what she was singing, her words were " I gotta gift" she repeated these words over and over. I was so tickled to find out what she was signing.

Do you think she will ever know how much of a gift she was to me?

I love it Brenda! This is a great way to share everything, I love seeing and hearing more about your experiences. So much makes me miss Allan's family.
Love you

PS put a short title on each entry and it won't put the whole first sentence to the left of the blog.
