At Christmas our boys wrote letters to their sponsors. The letters have been translated and the last couple of days I have been reading over what they wrote. The things they say and ask have been amazing me:
-Are you married yet?
-When are you coming back to Bolivia? I want to meet your new baby.
-Thanks so much for all the love that you are giving me.
-I am so thankful to God that He sent me to the Life Center.
-Why don't you come with your wife?
-God keeps you. Continue forward.
-Please come soon because I almost don't remember you.
-I'm still thinking about being a pastor some day.
-God will give you double for all the gifts you sent me.
-I give you 1,000,000 kisses.
-I like to work with my uncles and aunts here.
-Our dog here is huge.
-I'm so happy, because some day I will see you and then that day, I will hug you strongly.
-I would like to sing a beautiful song for you "I miss you so much, with love, I love you so much with happiness, I miss you with love, I love so much, Merry Christmas"
-I'm so happy because of you.
-What does the United States look like?
-You and your kids are in my heart.
-I'm good at kicking the ball and making goals.
-I thought you would come for Christmas, but you were not here.
-You made us happy, not just me, but all the kids who live here.
-I would like you to come here so I could teach you how to play soccer.
-You are the mother who loves me. I have not had my mom, but you are my mom.
-Nobody before has done these things for me. You've been giving me love and security.
-Tell your baby Merry Christmas from me.
-I like to be here.
-Christmas night was amazing, everybody had gifts. (from one of our two newest boys)
-Everybody here was so happy to have a gift. (from the other of our two newest boys)
