Today is the two year anniversary of the earthquake in Haiti. I was blessed with the opportunity to go down to Haiti the summer after the quake. It was one of the most life changing trips that I have ever been on. I have gotten to travel quite a bit over my lifetime and usually by the end of the trip, I am ready to come home. With my trip to Haiti, I wanted to stay. When I got back to America, I only wanted to go back. I left a piece of my heart there. I hope one day that I get to go back. I miss the people. They had more joy than I have ever seen and yet they had absolutely nothing. I could say lots about Haiti but I believe that pictures can say more than words....
Precious children in one of the IDP camps (internally displaced people)
The streets were still covered with debris- there is not a lot of equipment available to comeclean it up.
Distributing food at an IDP camp! It was a little intense at times!
