Care Packages from Home

There are few things more wonderful than the children here, but a close second is care packages from home.  I got my first one last week and you'd think it was Christmas the way I acted!  In it was, dried fruit (Yum!!!  a special treat that I really love), Nutella (hard to live without - every day I have a small bit with my bread), peanut M&M's, and some flavor packages for my water.  The instant the package came, my sunglasses disappeared into the depths of the boys' dormitory, but even I must admit that the boys look quite fashionable in my giraffe print Polo shades.  It made for a fun day for everyone.  The kids tried the M&Ms for the first time and found them very sweet!  There are few things quite that sweet here in Ghana that the kids get to eat.  If you are ever interested in sending treat, school supplies, clothes, or other happy surprises you think the kids would like you are always welcome!  Just comment that you'd like to and I'll be sure to get you the mailing address.
