A Letter from Paola


Yesterday, I received a letter from Paola. It was intended for Barbara, but it, also, mentions the other 12 of us. She probably imagines that we all live in one house :o)

Here is what it said:

Dear Barbara,

Paola Mendez thanks you for the letters that you send her. She likes to know you think of her. Paola likes the princess dress and also likes to color Dora. Paola also would like to meet you someday. She thanks all of the sponsors for everything they have done for her and her family. Paola hopes you also have a Happy New Year and sends you lots of kisses. Also Mrs. Rosa says hi and thanks you all for everything that you have done for them.

Sincerely,

Noemi Enriquez (field officer)

*on another note- I am down for the count. Jaden, Morgan, and I all have strep, so I will not be packing up the last two packages today. I will try to get them out tomorrow or Friday.

Hi Heather

I think the reference to our group of 14 came from the fact that I tried to explain to her that she was very lucky to have not one but 14 sponsors. And that they were all responsible for the many good things that have happened to help her family.So, far only a few of us have been sending direct packages and letters but hopefully that will soon change for the better since I am finding it very hard to keep up with the mailing costs for my 12 kids.
