Then, in a surprise twist, I've also financially sponsored a new child! Surprise! Haha. A group of friends just returned from Honduras, where they went on a mission trip. They visited Compassion project HO-133 to help them build a new roof, do a VBS, and just love on some kids. The group returned with a whole stack of packets of newly registered kids. As it always goes with me, I never really have the intention or desire to sponsor a new child. I look at the kids on Compassion and World Vision websites every single day. I pray over them, fawn over them, and share kids that reach out to me with others, in the hopes of finding them a sponsor. Though, I hardly ever get that feeling to sponsor. But, man, when I do get that feeling, I've learned over time not to doubt it. My friend Kim posted like little boy named Enoc on her page, and I just knew that he was mine.
How precious is he? I don't know too much about him yet, but he is 3 years old, his mother works as a tutor at the project, and he is all boy. In this picture he was rolling around in the grass and dirt, haha. I love that!
Here are a few more pictures that I have of him:
His official Compassion Picture
Figuring out how to take a selfie with someone's camera.
Such a sweetie!
ALL BOY!
I hope you're not trying to even out your number of boys and girls ;)
ReplyDeleteHaha. No. I don't think that will ever happen.
DeleteHow fun!! Your boys are all so handsome. What a neat opportunity to sponsor a little guy from the project that Kim visits!!
ReplyDeleteAll three of your new boys are ADORABLE ,IRRESISTIBLE, CUTENESS.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!
