Wrapping Up Our Compassion Day in Nicaragua


After our home visits we headed to lunch and then went back to the Compassion Project. I had my violin with me and got to play a mini-concert for our kids (and several others who happened to hear and come in the room).






After the mini-concert, it was time to take some final pics and say goodbye....










It was a wonderful day!

How wonderful to be able to travel with your mom -- enjoyed seeing all the pics and hearing your stories!
What did they think of your violining? Is the violin very common there?

That's a great question...I can't believe I forgot to talk about that! Most knew what a violin was, but had never seen or heard one in person. It's not common there at all. I aksed them if they knew what a fiddle was (because I played a fiddle tune) and they didn't even know what i was talking about. They liked the fiddle tune, though!

I love to play Happy Birthday for friends and family members on their birthdays so I told everyone in the room to pretend it was their birthday - then I played for them.
