We made it through our first day! Today we brought water to three different locations in Cite Soleil. It was amazing to see the kids run to our tap-tap (bus) right when we pulled down the street. They yelled "Hey you, hey you!" When we got out of the tap-tap the kids immediately jumped into our arms wanting our love. My favorite part of today was when the kids sang "Happy Birthday" to me in Creole and English. It was fun to see all their happy faces and excitement to be together.  

After delivering water to Cite Soleil we visited the HI (Haitian Initiative) Soccer fields where we watched the kids play soccer. The passion that each kid showed to the game was amazing to see. We also saw where they got to eat a meal before they played. The program designed to encourage kids to stay focused and stay in school in order to enjoy a meal and play the game. 

It was a great first day in Haiti. The sun beat down and we are tired but we are ready to go for tomorrow...after a delicious Haitian spaghetti meal!
