Easter Gifts 2011

Once again we have Barbara to thank for ensuring that we always have fresh photos of Paola and her sisters!

Here is the letter that Barbara received, along with a list of the package contents:

"Dear Barbara Rogers



The girl Paola is very happy to receive the gifts you sent her, she thanks you very much for your attentions to her. Paola is very happy to see the gifts: she loved the dress and rabbit ears both of which she wore right away. She liked the blanket as well as all the accessories. Paola thanks you and all your family. She sends you a kiss and an hug."

And in the additional comments Mayra wrote. "Paola looked so happy for all the gifts she received from her sponsor."



I made a couple of smaller corrections so that it was clearer than before.

According to the Field Officer - Paola, Tomasa and their mother loved all of the things that were sent

Easter Package

Hello Everyone,

Barbara and I sent a direct package to Paola for Easter. I received the following e-mail and the above pictures from Barbara

I have just received two photos of Paola's Easter DP but the two sisters don't seem to be very happy with their gifts for some reason. I thought Paola would love the big cuddly lamb but her little tight lipped smile doesn't show much pleasure. However, I do like her hairstyle!!

At least it is good to know that the parcel arrived safely.

Cheers

Barbara

We are waiting on the report on the hygene items we both sent in late March.
