And can definitely deliver gifts for you. I had planned on going to each house anyways, to get the kids to write a letter to their sponsors, so I will deliver your stuff when I visit to have them write you a letter. <br /><br />I will go shopping for the girls and mail it to you when it is ready! I will definitely get them underwear. I did send some several months ago, but I think the package never arrived. Sending it through you will be much better! <br /><br />And I did visit the Haitian school once or twice, but didn't really have any involvement with it, so I am not sure how it is doing. I would love to find out though... will put that on my list of things to check into in December!Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02177713668325278917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119177911474532778.post-62871080567989339482009-09-15T19:58:06.587-07:002009-09-15T19:58:06.587-07:00I want to give each child a wish bag(large ziplock...I want to give each child a wish bag(large ziplock filled with gifts, sure you know exactely what I mean lol)Rebecca told me a few hours before I was leaving, how she really wanted a pair of underwear, she had none. So that would be a great thing to give her. Kate..mm i'm thinking along the lines of a doll as I got many request from her classmates for one, but she is more of a 'tomboy' and really loved to draw. Coloring book and pencil crayons/ jump rope may be a good? <br /><br />Btw, did you get to see these videos from CUS? You can spot Rebecca and Kate in them briefly. but it so sums up how they are :) <br /><br />You can spot Kate in this one <br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsKaCU7E8yc<br /><br />Rebecca is ofcoure the one holding the baby..<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x2EaaduISy4&feature=related<br /><br />I will deffinetly have to send you some things for 'my' family! I was thinking of sending a card, books, and some other little things, and then giving you money to buy something which the family can us. Would this work? I know you'll be very busy.<br /><br />Also, when you where there did you see the Haitian class..infront of the old boys club?I was going through photos and just thinking about them and if they could use any long term help.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07762245502335655698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119177911474532778.post-47412582700060751042009-09-15T17:57:26.799-07:002009-09-15T17:57:26.799-07:00Good luck fundraising!

I wish I could donate but maybe next time!<br /><br />Are we as sponsors able to send items to you to give as gifts to our kids? Would love to get my girls something. I have a few ideas, but would love to know what you would suggest... better to buy something here and give it to your, or send money and have you get something there for them? Or are we not sending gifts as all the kids won't get one? Not sure- let me know your thoughts.<br />HEY- you will be with my Ugandan kids for Christmas and I will be with your Dominican sponsor kids for Christmas :)Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02177713668325278917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119177911474532778.post-56937419862714913382009-09-14T12:17:43.468-07:002009-09-14T12:17:43.468-07:00I have a list of things I want to bring, which I w...I have a list of things I want to bring, which I will post up asap.
