How you know it's all worth it in the end........no matter how shit you feel

One night before class a wee girl came running up to me and gave me this. Needless to say my heart just melted. 

The kids made these fish during out arts and crafts days last week.
The top one was made by a wee girl called Srey mom and the bottom by Leak (pronounced Leah).

Meeting so many children all the time it's hard to actually notice any but Srey mom caught my attention on day one. Cambodian children are not overly affectionate but she was in my face from day one. She came running up to me after we finished arts and crafts, gave me the fish and gave me this HUGE hug. Srey mom has a story to tell, probably not the easiest one to hear, I just wish she could speak enough English to tell me.
