I mentioned a few days ago that Emma would be posting an idea for folks to do with their kids for the orphans in Uganda.
Due to technical difficulties, she was unable to do the post until today {please forgive}.
Here’s the link for those interested: Project Snack Bag
So I just lost my job and was so disappointed we couldn't afford to buy any backpacks… But THIS! We are all over! Going out tomorrow to get supplies! 🙂
Oh count me in!!! My family & I will be packing snack bags in the coming days/weeks to send for them. SO fun!!
We needed this picture.
Itty Bit kind of sort of understood the backpack project, but when I showed him this picture, it put faces to it for him.
He remembered Emmy and smiled.
I read Emmy's post to Mr. Daddy.. not realizing that little ears were listening.
"Mommy? When are we going to do the project?" "What project honey?" "The one with the bags and the snacks for the kids".
Except… that he asked me over and over again tonight.
Linny… these bags will be filled with love from a 5-year old boy who wants to help hungry children.
I've been praying – how to teach and nurture kindness and caring and REAL LOVE. And this picture is what he needed.
Wait til you get your box from Itty Bit 🙂
Hoping I can get my small group to do this at a party we're having next week!!! Also have a bunch of friends interested in doing this with us!
