Heartbreak farewell...
"Give and it will be given to you...." (Lk 6:38)I can only imagine how very difficult this farewell had to be, as you leave a part of yourselves at Pamusis. In two short weeks, you have poured out your hearts to these children, and they, in turn, have given theirs to you.What a treasure you have all gained! Keep it close, cherish it, and share it generously, for it will, in this way, always be replenished....

thank you so much
Thank you so much for writting so extensively what you are doing in Pamuse. Everyone I have spoken to has truly enjoyed reading all of your journal entries and long to hear more when you get home.

okay, I sprung a leak
Well, while reading your last two journal entries I went through a half a box of kleenex. It may be hard to say goodbye, but their memories will not fade, and perhaps the children will have gotten a spark of hope, hope for the future, hope for their own fate. I recall hearing Oprah Winfrey comment on why she did not bring home some of the orphans she supports financially in Africa, and her answer was that this, the US is not their home. She financially supports them, because they are now in a stable environment within their home, so they could flourish and grow to later help others within their own country. I hope these children you met will grow up, remembering the time they spent with you and thereby help others within Lietuva.

Bummer, that it had to rain. You all really deserve a break. At least the photos look beautiful!

an amazing amount of life lessons are being learned in a short 2 weeks
The life lessons you are learning are amazing. Now some day when your own children are fighting you will probably remember these days and think, wow, it could be worse. Again, I am sure that Roma and her staff are so appreciative of your "extra" hands and eyes with all those children.

WOW!
Aciu, kad taip graziai pasidalinat savo ispudziais. I believe the love and empathy you have brought to these children will stay with them for a long time. There is nothing better than living by example and you three have embraced that. Sekmes!

Hollywood Moment
I loved your Hollywood Moment! :) You had to have a great laugh after that! But, seriously, maybe your presence there will generate more recognition and awareness of the wonderful work at Pamuse Vaiku Namai...The selfless way that you are working there and loving those children is an inspiration...Always look forward to your blog!

I feel so badly for those little children.
I can't believe how sad the situations are in an educated country such as Lithuania. I feel so badly for those little children who deserve so much better. Thank goodness they have a place such as the one in Pamuse, that will hopefully give them not only shelter, but the emotional and educational support they will need to succeed in life.

unbelievable yet believable
It is truly unbelievable to see first hand the slums of any country. You can hear about them, and read about them, yet it never really prepares you for that harsh reality of life. Now you can understand how these orphanages become a safe haven, and how your own hardships in life may not be all that bad when you check them with this harsh reality. It is a sad yet important thing to see in life. We are very proud of you girls and the work you are doing to help others!

What an interesting Sunday!
Hopefully, as you mentioned what may have been a sad day for these orphans, not having a father with whom to celebrate Father's Day, became a fun day with their new friends from the US! Love reading your blog.

Valio musu Trys Lietuvaites!
Valio! Bravo! Hurray! Taip smagu kad Jums Lietuva taip miela! How wonderful that you love Lithuania so much! Each one of you come from the most marvelous families and backgrounds. You have so much to offer those children and youth in Lithuania. This blog makes the perfect gift for your fathers, since today is Fathers' Day back here in America...

Wonderful work in Lithuania!
It is wonderful to read about your experiences. I can't wait to read what you will do tomorrow. It would be interesting to find out what the children do on a daily basis normally? How many children are in this facility? How long do the children usually live in this home?

Labai jūsų pasiilgom. Vaikai dažnai klausinėja, kada parvažiuosite, ką veikiate, kaip jums sekasi... Pamūšyje palikote daug širdies....
