Our new family addition

No, I'm not pregnant....and NO!, we didn't get a dog!  :)  We recently added another child to our sponsorship through Compassion.  I'd like to introduce Wannaporn Lerdsem. 


She lives in Thailand and was born on the same day as Rachel - May 25, 2005.  We have sponsored Mwajuma from Tanzania for four years now.  It has been a wonderful experience for our whole family.  Dusty and I had discussed sponsoring an additional child for a while.   I thought we would probably choose a boy from India since Dusty's job has him working with programmers in India.  However after searching Compassion's site I found Wannaporn.  She just stuck with me especially since she was born the same day as our little girl.  So last week we sat down together as a family and decided to proceed.  We can't wait to get more information about her and to begin to get to know her.  We pray for her daily.


If you've ever thought of sponsoring a child....just do it! :)  We sponsor through Compassion International.  It's a highly rated organization and I can't recommend them enough.  If you have any questions about sponsoring a child or would like to know more about our experiences please contact me.

On a totally unrelated side note, I made Kung Pao chicken with coconut jasmine rice tonight.  Not really important, but I wanted to take a photo of something today.


Have a great week!

Our family sponsors three children as well...two with Compassion and it has been such a blessing. We are so excited to meet one of our sponsored kids in Ecuador this summer! (P.S. Supper looks awesome!)
