We are sending a care package over for Joseph this week. We have friends who are picking up their son from the same orphanage that Joseph is in. They very kindly offered to take a package for Joseph and we've had fun getting it together for him. I had lots of great suggestions. We decided to purchase a travel size pillow pet and take pictures of each of us loving on it and it hanging out around our house. This way Joseph can hold the pet that we've loved on and slept with for almost a week and he can see it with us in his photo-book. We included a picture of the outside of our house and of his Daddy's big red truck.
Here's our album: http://www.kodakgallery.com/gallery/sharing/shareRedirectSwitchBoard.jsp?token=816641676310%3A309065997 Julianna chose the panda bear pet for Joseph and Eli chose a puppy dog for Samuel. He'll be keeping it safe until we have a chance to send it to Samuel or hand deliver it. I hope you enjoy the photos, but I really hope Joseph loves them. It's a blessing to be able to send them and have him know we're coming. We're sending along a few other toys, too.
Please continue to pray for our boys and don't forget to share our iPad2 giveaway. We're in the final push to bring in donations with this giveaway. It will end on August 5th! Thank you all for your support and especially for your prayers.
