My City: Day 877: South Africa

Today was spent at the orphanage. I fell in love with this boy. All the children here are from birth to age 6. They have been abandoned at the hospital or dropped off at the door of the orphanage. Not many will be adopted. At age six they are sent to a children's home until they are 15 and then they are sent to live with relatives if any are found, or they are on their own. It broke our hearts to leave them after playing and loving them for three days. They just want to be held and loved.
