I’m so happy to write this post. You see a big package came for me a few days ago. I eagerly unwrapped it to find a card from all the wonderful people at Warm Blankets Orphan Care, a letter, and this picture. Here is part of the letter and I feel that is also for those of you who have so generously donated: “If you could look deep into the fibers and brush strokes of this painting, I think you would be astounded at what you see. You would see a girl dancing and singing with her friends; the smile of a little boy who’s just happy to be held; a group of children joyously singing to God. You would see the hope that you have given the orphans…
This painting was made just for you! One of your precious orphans (insert this is where I cried…) painted this with love and appreciation for you. To echo them: Thank you for your dedication to restoring the childhoods of the children in India! Their joyous expression would not be possible without you.” I hope you read that as if it was for you because without you I could not have done this. Thank you! And if you haven’t had the blessing of giving it’s not to late to give today! 😀 (And then go back and read that letter again) 😉
Now comes the work to see if it is possible for me to go meet “my” darling children. How I long to give them hugs. I don’t know if they get to see this blog even though I know they have heard about it. If they are reading this then this is for them: I love you. You are special and you have so much worth. I pray for you and hope that you know just how loved you are.
I really like hair tutorials. Mine is kinda a mess but you can see how to do this one here. 🙂
WOW, I was really touched with this post! You have the biggest heart ever and this picture is the cutest ever!
Happy Monday!

You’re wonderful! Thanks Neris you’re so sweet. I hope you had a fabulous Monday! xxx
Those precious little darlings! ^^
They are so thoughtful to make you such a lovely little thank you package and picture. God has blessed those little ones through you, and in return has blessed you through those little ones. I bet you God is smiling down on you and those orphans, thinking…”My precious children, how I love them!”
Ahh I am SO blessed. And I just love those darlings! Thanks Laura
Dear Elaini,
Oh that’s wonderful! I can see those little ones smiling they’re sweet big smiles while drawing there picture for you how wonderful! My brother once received a present from some little girls that he taught to say goodbye and thank you to him before he went home to see us before that he’d drawn some life like pictures of the kids they were adorable the little darlings.

Thanks! I’ve never thought I couldn’t do hair so I’m out to prove myself wrong. 🙂 I’ll check out that link.
Precious! There are so many wonderful things in that painting. Just like famous painters like Michelangelo found art a way to give praise so these little ones have also found a way to show their gratitude.
Love your hair! My friends and I fix each other’s hair all of the time. 😉 Totally girl!
That’s lovely.
Glad you like the hair. 🙂 That sounds fun! I’m totally girl then too because I used to do my dear friends hair.
