Nicaragua

Was going through some of my older photos on my laptop and ended up looking through the ones I took in Nicaragua in January of 2008.  We were there for a week hosting a traveling medical/dental clinic in poor rural villages.  The team I went with was amazing; the Nicaraguan folks were amazing.  I'm left with some really incredible memories -- being followed around by a cute little boy named Wilton, assisting Doc Hansen as he uprooted 21 decayed tooth stubs from one woman's mouth, sitting in a circle surrounded by young women talking to them in Spanish about boys, being awed by the incredible humility of our Nicaraguense hosts, dancing in a dusty church to Doc's harmonica, blowing bubbles with kids for HOURS, having a curly haired girl come up and tap my shoulder and softly sing "This Little Light of Mine" to me, doing dentistry with Dad, running races with Erica and the other sweet little girls at the orphanage, being waved out of town by a herd of happy kids....
It was blessed.
