(this is not our bed, I just liked the photo/bedding and was trying to convey big and comfy for this post)
- For BEDS!
- For the fact that we have a bed, our girls each have a bed and even our guest room has a bed.
- For the fact that every night I lay down in a room in my climate controlled house in a totally comfy bed with my own comfy blanket.
- For the fact that I never have to wonder where I am going to sleep or if anyone is going to attack me or my children in the night like so many around the globe.
This is Muzeyii our sponsored child in Uganda. A couple of years ago we sent an extra gift of $100 for his family at Christmas time. The World Vision staff took him shopping and look at what he chose – a bed! He had never had a bed before. He was also able to buy the goat, set of clothes and those VERY large shoes for growing into.
Here is our sponsored child Fredy from Peru. The same year we sent his family an extra $100 gift for Christmas and guess what he bought – a bed! Plus blankets, a backpack, a goat and that cute little outfit for his mom! What a great kid!
My point of sharing this photos is not to say that Mike and I are so great for sponsoring kids, but to show that we completely take our life for granted so often. That something as simple as a bed can be an amazing thing to people around the world. We are so blessed by the kids we sponsor and the letters we received from them and their families, but especially through photos like these.
