Somewhere in China...

















Mei is another child we're sponsoring through Love Without Boundaries (as little as $10 per month sponsors a child's education). She's in kindergarten, and I love this photo of her working so intently, focusing on her writing. We and other families are waiting for our babies and children, but due to her age, Mei will likely never find a forever family and may never know that half a world away another family cares about her and is watching her grow up... Look at that weathered, almost makeshift desk. Such a contrast to the bright clothes she's wearing, and to the colorful shirt of the child behind her. In the midst of all that gray, a splash of color, of life, of hope. Study hard, Mei.

Bless you for loving those kids through your support to LWB! I have been sponsoring kids though Compassion International since I was in college, and started sponsoring a baby thought HTS earlier this year. Maybe their lives will be a little better for the help they received because we took the time to write a check each month? I sure hope so.
