update....
Only if you?re really interested in the original post should you read any further, this gets pretty boring. I just got the ?list? in the mail of the things that were bought with my birthday donations for 2 of the 4 sponsored children, the ones with birthdays in July. They each got new jeans and new shoes. They each got a new mattress to sleep on. The little girl?s looks like a rollaway bed in the picture. The little boy?s is only a mattress and, honestly, I don?t know how it?s going to fit in that little shack. I hope they measured first. Other things on the list are:
Cooking Oil, Milk, Rice, Tomato Sauce,
Chlorine, Beans, Sugar, Toilet paper,
Corn Flake, Noodles, Sardines, Pasta,
Toothpaste, Meat, Soap, Chicken Bouillon,
Salami, Gelatin, Garlic, Onion,
Electric Fan, Egg, Bread, Knapsack,
Pencil, Pot, Soda, Detergent,
Ketchup, Cookies,
I got an additional letter of thanks from each of the kids, however, the letter from the little girl (Anisberca, see Media Gallery) was written by her older sister, which is normal because Ani cannot write well yet, but her ?letter? was just a reiteration of the printed list of items. ?Thank you for the milk, rice, etc??? the whole list. Oh well?
