Cookbooks and Cheesecakes....

YES...THIS POST IS A PLUG FOR WAYS TO GIVE TO THOSE IN NEED, SPECIFICALLY THE POOREST IN ETHIOPIA! 

Our International placing agency, Children's House International, has a wonderful opportunity to give $proceeds directly back to children in need in Ethiopia and later, China.  I personally have not seen the cookbook, but know it's a bunch of recipes from adoptive parents across the globe.  It should be a fun mix of ethnic and tried and true goodies!

In addition, they have CHEESECAKES that can be delivered anywhere.  Check 'em out.  There are so many children who do not get the opportunity to be provided for through adoption, and this is a great chance to give to those families to help them with their children!! BE BLESSED!

Of course they've outlined more extensive ways for folks who are led to sponsor children/families for needs and education. That's their prayer long term.  They've taken on 150 families and kids. These children do not have access to even the basic necessities like clean drinking water, food and clothing. For approximately $254 per year, we can support one child, providing them with an education, medical attention, nutritious food and clean drinking water. The $254 breaks down in to approximately $106 for food, $70 for education, $42 for clothing, and $35 for medical.

****Oh...and remember Kaylee Ann's earrings ( http://earrings4ethiopia.blogspot.com ) ...all proceeds are going to Ethiopia!  Now she's able to split some with the Thomas Center orphanage (where our boys were) as well as new effort we're a part of trying to give children daycare while a parent works!  It's exciting!


remembering some of our 'friends' we met in Lalibela, Ethiopia...
