So this is it...

Can't believe I only have 2 days left!



Its the beginning of rainy season in Cusco...

AWESOME NEWS!

-66 pairs of shoes- various types, sizes and colors
- 3 pairs of orthopedic shoes

A straggler check has come in too, so I hesitate to say that this is the grand total. I couldn't be more thankful for the people all over the world (England, Australia, France and the US) who have seen the validity of this cause and sacrificed some of their resources to provide some of the most basic necessities for these precious kids. I believe whole heartedly that children with special needs must be the people group closest to sweet Jesus since hearts remain largely untainted by the things that poison our hearts. THANK YOU for appreciating their worth with your resources: prayer and monetary alike!

Last week was spent in bed for a good bit, quite ill with something that resembled death. But I'm back and attem, using my last 2 days wisely.

Not too much interesting to report- today we went to Pisac and Cristo Blanco, so that I could eat the best empanadas (oven baked) ever, and see Jesus.

Working on cake baking, shoe giving, and last minute underwear shopping for my kids tomorrow.

Can't wait to see you all and get the Christmas season started! Woo hoo Feliz Navidad!
