Kevin & the Kids sit for their picture

Kev & the kids right before we all left for the Island Jan. 28, 2008, on their Kevin-Sponsored Holiday (images & posts below)

From Left: (Mole`, the kids friend) LetLet & Lisa on Kev's lap, Marlon (he's unable to speak) MayAnne & JunJun.

Marlon's a street child and always joins us for his meals when we're there, but we've never been able to locate his Family, if he has Family.
...he's also partially deaf, but Kevin & I are always able to communicate with him on a basic level, asking him things and having him nod back 'yes or no' (he can understand some basic English)

Lisa, LetLet, MayAnne & JunJun are all sisters/brothers, and Kev's just messaged me he'll most likely be back in Cebu around Christmas time.

One of those kids looks very much like my next door neighbor, but I know she can't be as I live in Hawaii.

I wanted to ask if there were going to be any more paintings available?

Thank you for commenting, and yes - the kids all have very expressive faces and once in a while when I'm out of the country I'll see someone that looks like the kids or Families in Philippines and I have to do a quick double-take.

YES, Marylou is still painting in her spare time, and I'll see what she's painted for me to list here on the website, or I'll see if I can commission her to do some paintings specifically for the website, and as soon as I arrive in Manila I'll report here on that.
