Happy Fathers Day!

I know I'm a day late, but its never too late to celebrate our fathers!  I want to thank my own dad for being such a wonderful guy.  He has always been there for me, he's a silly and fun guy, and a great role model.  My father-in-law is also an awesome dad.

Our heavenly father is also a great dad.  He blesses & loves us each and every day even when we probably don't deserve it.  I want to thank God for always being there for me too :)

I know this is a short post, but sometimes life gets crazy so back to work for me.

Happy belated fathers day everyone.

Anyone want to sponsor Lebron James?

Last week I went to a meeting with other advocates to learn some new ways to tell people about Compassion and the different programs (Bite Back, Water of Life, etc.).  It was a fun meeting but we also got to look through some child packets to take to advocate for.

I was immediately drawn towards little Lebron James.


Isn't he a cutie!  He's from the Philippines, which holds a special place in my heart (since our two correspondence kids are such great writers from the Philippines and we were able to visit them last November and see where they live).

When we were in the Philippines we saw just how much they LOVE basketball so I thought it was cute that this little guys parents may have named him after a basketball player from the USA that they like.

His birthday is the day before Christmas (December 24, 2011).  He's 3.5 years old now.  He lives with both his parents and there are two kids in the family.  He likes art.

If you, or someone you know would like to sponsor little Lebron James (any basketball fans out there?), just let me know.  I have this packet for the next month.  Thanks!
