Going about her day, Vickie had flashbacks of her fingertips meeting with Amelia at the last of her tour with the group. Going past the nursery area to get to the back for her work load of the day, she wanted to step in and wave and meet up with the team.
Discovering that in between the 9 hour work, the volunteers had the opportunity to take a break, eat lunch and even take a walk through their garden maze. Instead of going the rest of the group, she asked the nuns if she could hang out with all the children who were available. Lucky for her, the kids ages 8 months through six years were having their play time. As their time goes about, Vickie grabbed Amelia and one other child, sat in a rocker and rocked while watching over the other kids playing tag.
At the end of the time for the kids, Vickie puts the babies back in their cribs and saw the kids back to their wing of the orphanage. While they got settled, Vickie made her way back to meet up with group to finish her piece of work for the day.

Naturally she then talks about how much fun she had during the members' break.
Arriving at her hotel, she said her goodnights to the others and headed up to her floor. Opening up the door, she remembered why she was happy for the bed being close to the door. Laying her things down around her, she hurries to take a shower and change into something more comfortable
Reflecting upon another day she realized that she had taken a picture of the room with the babies. hiding I dear to her heart she rolled over to the satisfyingly cold puffed pillow's.
