Compassion

Meet my new friend!

A few months ago, I won a little giveaway over at Ree's (right!? I know). I say little, but this is big! A few Bloggers went on a tripto Costa Rica a few months back with Compassion International to meet the children they sponsor. I made some new bloggy friend through reading about their experiences, and it prompted me to want to sponsor a child. It was just before Christmas and so I was going to wait until after the first of the year to see if I could manage it. Before that happened, I was chosen to do this through no cost of my own. I finally got my sponsorship package in the mail yesterday, and I am very excited. They wanted me to sponsor an older child because they rarely get chosen, and I was happy to doso, so my young man is 18 and lives in Ethiopia. I can't wait to get the correspondence going.
