I am praying so hard for Brigita, and so wish I could bring her home to my family. Can't wait to see what Sofia has in store for a fundraiser. Even if it can't go directly to Brigita anymore, the older children surely could use a bigger fund.Robin E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03970907580484799535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5878871062832456430.post-42770136406083502342011-01-23T07:41:16.273-05:002011-01-23T07:41:16.273-05:00Teaching your children to have a philanthropic spi...Teaching your children to have a philanthropic spirit is one of the most important things you can do.

Its always difficult to say which way our kids might go, we might think and feel a certain way but will they? I cant help thinking that once special needs has touched them in any small or big a way they are bound to be changed forever. What you are doing for the orphans makes me wish there were more beautiful people like you in this world and I am so honoured and blessed to know you even if only through this computer screen of mine.<br />I just received your beautiful Christmas Card, better late than never and I had tears in my eyes, I felt that a little bit of your family was in my home. I had to abort my Christmas card plans as we had a month long postal strike which has just ended and I didn't want my cards reaching in time for easter. I am looking at all those cards and well perhaps I might still send them for easter!!!Tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15552691097146215450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5878871062832456430.post-58261439232004041122011-01-21T19:46:44.274-05:002011-01-21T19:46:44.274-05:00One scripture comes to mind when I read this post....One scripture comes to mind when I read this post... <br />"Teach your children in the way they should go and when they are old they will not depart from it."<br /><br />You are doing an outstanding job!!<br />I need you to inbox (bkm1109@aol.com) me your address so that I can send you something...I know that sounds weird and I hope it doesnt creep you out, but you will be blessed by your suprise...God has really laid it on my heart and I must obey!<br /><br />Blessings~<br />BrandiBrandi Haneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01444171350936770152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5878871062832456430.post-82405063354536805712011-01-21T16:33:16.421-05:002011-01-21T16:33:16.421-05:00Just look at how all that love you've been sat...Just look at how all that love you've been saturating them in has come seeping back out to change our world.

Hubby and I we're just talking about the orphans this morning...How our hearts ache for them. We can't adopt (age) however we are doing everything we can to help them and to pray. Yes I will agree with Sophia to pray for Briggitta!! Can you also pray for Alexander. He's been transferred and has never had one person inquire about him..not one!
