More than 50 other children were in better health after treatment and were fostered into ordinary families. Children may look different from ordinary people, some may have difficulty moving, or may even be unable to express their thoughts in words. They were abandoned by their parents and plagued by diseases. Although they were unfortunate, they still did not forget to smile.

Under the warm afternoon sunshine, Dot and Dot in a wheelchair stood in the center of the yard. Her legs were too slender and her feet were straight, more like an elegant ballet dancer. In the yard, she and two foreign students were throwing and catching basketballs to each other. When she held the basketball tightly with both hands, the long eyelashes under her bangs could not hide the bright smile in her eyes. You could also see the wit and cunning in her eyes when she was considering who to throw the ball to.

"Slowly,Slowly,” he said intermittently with a non-standard Chinese accent, “open your mouth, ah——, great! "Cha Mei from Vietnam is one of the volunteers this time. She picked up a bowl of rice mixed with vegetables and fed a child with limited mobility spoonful by spoonful. When the child's food got to his mouth, she gently wiped it away with her hands; when the child's saliva flowed to his chin, she wiped it with paper; when the child ate too quickly and too much, she patted his back and said "slowly, slowly", and then touched his head after the child successfully took a bite and told him "you are awesome". In the small restaurant, more than 20 volunteers worked in twos and threes to help each child who could not take care of himself eat. The children tilted their heads and smiled, clapped their hands, swayed in their wheelchairs, communicated with the volunteers non-verbally, and expressed their gratitude with the raised corners of their eyes.

The garden is full of spring scenery, but it is no match for the warmth and warmth of spring.

The yard in front of the building is the venue for children’s daily leisure activities. A rusty trampoline and a few faded slides are their only outdoor entertainment facilities. The children held hands with the volunteers, made noises to attract the attention of another volunteer, and formed a half circle in the yard to watch the program prepared by the volunteers. The singing and dancing of "Tinker Bell" and "Two Tigers" were performed by these twenty-year-old college students in the simplest and childish form. The smiles on their faces were gentle and genuine. The music and dance were just to better let the children feel joy.

A boy stumbled past among the volunteers, singing "Three Little Bears" performed by the volunteers. The classic fairy tale "Little Rabbit" was presented in the form of a drama by foreign students. They were wrapped in fluffy costumes and told the story of the mother rabbit's three children and the big bad wolf. When the music of "Little Rabbit Be Good" played, children standing, being held, and in wheelchairs clapped their hands and screamed excitedly, shaking their wheelchairs to express their joy. The only sound that can be made is "ah-ah", which is more like a thousand words, making the volunteers work harder.

"I don't know what their dream is. My dream is to open an orphanage in the future and take care of these children. I like to be friends with them. Being with them can also make me feel happy when I am lonely because I am far away from my parents. Before coming here, I felt that I lacked a lot of warmth in my heart. After meeting them, I remembered what life is." In international studentsLucyIt seems that this activity is not what they give to the children, but the children give them a chance to experience life and feel the warmth.

Volunteers excitedly took photos with the children, holding hands, touching heads, making eye contact,VThe calligrapher is as close as an old friend who has known each other for many years. A weak voice sounded, "I also want to sing a song for my brothers and sisters." Her name was Leilei, she was blind and she sang extremely well. She stood in the middle of the crowd, clasping the ball with her hands free, and being watched by everyone, she exuded confidence like a superstar. In her opinion, singing one of her best songs is the best reward for her brothers and sisters who treat them well.

“You are my eyes, leading me to experience the changes of the four seasons

You are my eyes, leading me through the crowded crowd

Because you are my eyes

Let me see the world right before my eyes
