The opportunity to sit in a classroom!

Jahaya, 8 years old

Well, I must say, even though it's cold and snowy out,  'It's a beautiful day, and I can't stop myself from smiling' once again!  I received such a heart warming email, from the Principal, Joanne, of St Henry's Elementary School in Melville, Saskatchewan, that brought me to tears! She said she loved what I was doing and loved reading the blog. She read one of my posts, where I had mentioned some of our children at the Orphanage and our neighbour children needed sponsors so that they may go to school.  She contacted me and said that the school, the staff and all the children, were having a Christmas fundraiser and would like to donate to help one of the children go to school.  This is sooooo awesome and makes me smile sooooo big!  Now ALL of our children at Karim and 3 of the neighbour boys have sponsors. So, because of this extremely kind gesture and big hearts of all the staff and students of St Henry's School, Jahaya, an 8 year old boy, will have the opportunity to sit in a classroom, for the first time ever! Yup, I'm crying again! I am so excited for Jahaya, and I can't wait to see this little guy in a school uniform when he starts in January. Thank you, Joanne and to all your staff and students, you are truly angels! Sending you all a big heart felt hug from both me and Jahaya!  

Happy Holidays to all of you,
Mama Linda
