Overwhelmed with your generosity~ UPDATED 2/17

We don't even know what to say or how to thank everybody for their kindness and generosity. This week we have collected over 175 pairs of shoes. We now have 185 pairs of shoes waiting to go to Kazakhstan. Stacy's bestfriend's mom, Marcia, owns a shoe store and donated 109 pairs of tennis shoes. We also got boxes from Julie (Ohio), Ann (Indiana), Jessica (Georgia) and Kim (California). We are so completely overwhlemed. There is just no way to thank everybody for their kindness. As we sorted through everything, I just kept picturing the kids faces as they open a box with a new pair of shoes in it. We were talking about how we remembered as children being soooo excited to get a new pair of shoes and we got them often. Can you imagine how it will feel to get a new pair of shoes, especially if they have never received a new pair? We have also already started to get sleepers and pajamas for next months donation! Thank you Julie for the onesies and hats, they will definitely come in handy since they have 15 layers on in the baby home. Ann you are too much, thank you for sending all of the diapers and clothes! Stacy found pajamas on sale at Old Navy yesterday and bought them for next months boxes.

We want to say a HUGE thank you to everybody and let you know that we are grateful for your support. We started this ministry so that we could not only take care of the children that will soon find their forever families but those children that will never get a chance to be adopted. We know that each one of these children were a part of God's Perfect plan and precious creation and we intend on making their lives a little better. Together, we can make a difference!!!!!! THANK YOU AGAIN!!

Update~People have asked if it is too late to send shoes or when was the cut off for sending shoes. We wanted to tell everyone that it is never too late and we will take any donation whenever you want to send them. We set up a different monthly donation because we thought it would easier for people to focus on one thing at a time. We will ship our stuff the first week of every month. So February's donation will go out the first week in March, etc. If you miss the shipment we will send your donations in the next months shipment. Also, don't forget to look at the months ahead when you are out gathering donations, I noticed today that the winter pajamas and coats went on clearance. :-)

March~pj's and sleepers, April~coats, May~hygiene products
