Gifts

We are collecting gifts for the orphanage staff, taxi drivers, guest house staff, and other persons who assist us in our adoption. This is not mandatory but it shows our appreciation for their work. Some examples are t-shirts, hats, ties for men. Earrings, hair barrettes, shampoos, soaps, lotions, pencils, paper, crayon, chalk, calenders, postcards, pens, key chains to name a few. We have started collecting a few donations like key chains and paper and crayons.

We are told they there will be beggars all around us. We are collecting granola bars and candies and balloons to give out to the beggars on the street. I cannot imagine a world where the children are begging for food. It is so sad that in other parts of the world the parents can't afford food so the children's only hope for food is what they find on the streets, which I can't imagine is very clean.

I feel like we are always broke but we always have all the food we need or want and we always have a warm house to sleep in. We are truly blessed in this world.
