Three New Faces

We want to introduce three new friends, and three new faces to the Casa Hogar San Jose. Shortly before we left for Christmas break three sisters ended up at San Jose, after their mother was unable to take care of them adequately.

As soon as we heard about their arrival Julie was anxious to go and meet them. Instantly we wondered about their situation and about their arrival to the children's home. We wondered how they were adjusting, and where they were sleeping. We wondered how they were fitting in, and if they needed anything.

When we arrived at San Jose to meet them we couldn't have been more surprised. Jenny, Betty and Mari are three beautiful sisters who already seem to have found a special place at San Jose. The three sisters are currently sharing one twin-sized bed, but they appear extremely content in their new surroundings. We have no doubt that on the inside it has been a time of great adjustment and turmoil, and that there little heads are without a doubt filled with endless questions - but for the time being the seem to be adjusting extremely well. Probably what brought us the most amount of joy was how extraordinarily well the other children were treating them. It was obvious that the others were going out of their way to make these girls feel welcome, feel comfortable, feel...at home. I know it won't be long until these little girls find a very special place in our hearts - in a way they already have.
