Donations

One thing we are very excited about, is that, through the blessings of others (this is one of those miracles that has happened for us along the way) we are able to bring donations to the orphanage where our daughter is living. It seems so little after all they have done for us in taking such good care of her for the past two years. Because we can only check in three suitcases on the way to India, we only have one suitcase to put all the donations in, so we had to find stuff that wouldn't take up a lot of room or weigh a lot.

The orphanage told us what they were in need of. We were able to buy 66 new dresses for girls ages 3 months to 5 years old.

They also needed underwear for toddler boys and girls. We were able to get 112 pairs of underwear.

And we were able to get some toys, games, a few school supplies and candy (not shown) for the little kiddos.

I sure hope we get a chance to play with some of these toys with all the kids. I'm probably going to fall in love with all the kids and want to squeeze them into my suitcase and bring them home. Maybe the airline does know what they are doing, in only allowing us to bring three suitcases to check in. At least we for sure get to bring one of those adorable little kiddos home with us. :)
