The First Letter from Melaku!

A first letter is always so exciting. This letter from Melaku was written before he knew that I even existed and my name has been penciled in. But still, it's always nice to learn that basic information about a sponsored child.

I am happy to share this letter with you today:

  1. That's so neat that his first letter contains so much info about him!!! I love that he already loves you although it's his first letter--and that he wants you to come visit!! I can only imagine how excited he was/will be when he begins to receive all your letters!!!

    1. I think so too! I know that it was written before he even knew about me, but still, I like that it shows how much he was going to love his potential/eventual sponsor. I hope we can develop a good relationship and I hear from him a few more times before he graduates from the program in January.
