So this picture was taken on my first visit to Tokyo Sexwale in Jeffrey's Bay, South Africa. The little guy in my arms in Koko. He stole my heart that year. And a year later when I went back. I can remember walking down the street and being shocked by the conditions. But the kids were so excited we were there and swamped us. We all had kids holding our hands and climbing on us. I know that part of it was because we were white. But part of me really hopes that they saw something different in us. For the next 8 months 4 days a week I got to teach, spend time with and love on these kids and many more. Many captured my heart.
