refugee girl

. . . And His children will have a place of refuge. ~Proverbs 14:26

I met a little girl today (along with her family)

There were others from other places (Burma, Liberia, Congo, Sudan, Burundi, Moldova), all with stories; many too hard to tell - and almost too much to take in at one time.

This little girl (along with her family) has been here only one week. 
She is from Bagdad, Iraq.

It changes everything to read this here, to see her face- I pray for her and her family. What a beautiful little girl.

alyson - I hope so too. Such beautiful little children this family has.

kris - It's a wild situation isn't it? Hopefully all will go well with them (I think of all the relatives /family they've left - so many changes).

citizen - She is. I hope so too. I'm guessing things are better than they have been for them for the past couple of years . . . but they still appeared quite in shock overall.
