Sanyu Babies Home

50 babies (ages 0-3) live at the Babies Home that we volunteer with a couple of times a week. We play with the kids, mop, cook, or do laundry. Then we have some music and next we feed them. I wish everyone could see this- FIFTY babies being fed this strange mushy food or bottles depending on their age, at the same time. Needless to say, it is pure chaos and I have never seen dirtier children. They throw the food at each other or it just goes all over their clothes and the floor. Next we change the younger babies’ clothes and diapers while the older ones all sit on little plastic potties at the same time. Then we find their crib for their nap time. The babies are sweet but I am in awe of the women that work there full time!
