These beautiful trees are found through North America, Europe and Asia. My sponsor child wrote a handwritten letter asking for some pictures. So I printed out a few and put them inside her Thanksgiving card. I’m actually holding Carolina’s 2015 World Vision progress report photo in my hand as a sweet surprise. Quick Tip: When […]
Children Learn What They Live If a child lives with criticism, he learns to condemn. If a child lives with hostility, he learns to fight. If a child lives with fear, he learns to be apprehensive. If a child lives with pity, he learns to feel sorry for himself. If a child lives with ridicule, […]
Today, my sponsor child turns thirteen. I love you from afar Carolina!
Don’t ever hit a child to toughen them up. Today’s Affirmation: I use my hands to heal, not to hurt.
It is easier to build up a child than it is to repair an adult… Choose your words wisely. Today’s Affirmation: I will share positive words and energy with everyone I encounter.
I remember trying to find paper dolls for Carolina back in 2011 to no avail, so I wound up printing one out for her instead. Fast forward to 2013 seeing magnetic dress up dolls in the store refreshed my memory. I can recall how much fun I had playing with simplistic things as a small […]
World Vision sent me a photo of Carolina sitting next to the gifts that were mailed back in May. It’s nice seeing her smiling face. It’d be nice to see yours too. May God bless you and all of your loved ones year-round. Oh, and guess what I found? A second photo inside the envelope and […]
Carolina (my sponsor child) will be turning eleven this coming July (2013) so I sent her care package early to make sure she’ll get it prior to her special day. Inside there was chalk, dolls, hand puppet, crayons, coloring books, magic paint books, colored pencils, purple high heel pencil sharpener, flower shaped erasers, pens, pencils, […]
My little cousin Talia was giggling at the widow fan because she said it looks like a pig. I couldn’t see it until she pointed that out. A child’s imagination never ceases to amaze me.
This is stuff I found while browsing the net. Check back every Monday for more… Joke of the Week: A child custody case was held in court. The judge felt that the mother and father were both fit to be parents and therefore couldn’t decide who he should grant full custody to. So he asks […]
I like when my sponsor child Carolina writes to me. She celebrated her ninth birthday on July 27th. Her favorite color used to be red but now it’s purple. She is academically excelling in primary school. Carolina is such a nice girl who mentioned that she can now speak two languages.
This is stuff I found while browsing the net. Check back every Monday for more… Joke of the Week: A teacher asks her class, “If there are five birds sitting on a fence and you shoot one of them, how many will be left?” She calls on little Tony. He replies, “None, they will all […]
When I was a little girl I liked Bernstein Bears, Little Critter, and Dr. Suess but I must say my favorite book was entitled: “Mother, Mother, I Want Another” by Maria Polushkin. The story line was so cute and I was fortunate enough to have a mom who read bedtime stories to me. The son […]
The bullying in schools is getting out of hand. I graduated from H.S. in the late 90’s so cyber-bullying wasn’t something my peers had to deal with. I didn’t even own a cell phone just a pager. Remember when pay phones were all over the place? Now you seldom see them & chances are when you do it’s “out […]
Guess what came in the mail today? A new photo of my sponsor child Carolina and her annual progress report. It says that her favorite subject in school is Art (check out the pretty flowers she colored). Her best friend is named Oscar. Favorite color is red and she enjoys playing soccer. Carolina is currently […]
I would like to share a couple photos with you of me and my cousin Rochelle. As an adult now looking back at the photo on the LEFT I wonder what “Chelle” wished for before she blew out her birthday candles. As a child I just wished she’d hurry up and blow them out so we could eat the cake. A […]
A dose of my life.
