What a Difference Two Years Make

This morning I logged on to my Compassion International website to write my sponsored child, Emily, and my correspondent child, Sagar, a letter about our new fish. I LOVE Compassion's new letter writing templates online. Emily has a birthday coming up so I will be sending her some goodies in the mail soon. Shortly after will be Sagar's birthday! When I logged in, I saw that I had a new and updated picture of Emily! This is the first picture I saw of Emily. We decided to sponsor her when our church did Compassion Sunday almost 2 years ago. I was pregnant with Easton at the time.


Almost two years later, here is Emily! My how she has grown!

I was SO excited to see how she had changed! She has been such a blessing to write to and I love writing letters to her. I even have her artwork hung up in our hallway. What a great reminder to see every day!


If you are reading this and you have ever thought about sponsoring a child, please click the picture above to go to the Compassion Internatioal website! I know in my heart that Compassion International is what they say they are and they do what they say the do, release children from poverty in Jesus' name. I know in today's world there are companies and people that try to trick or steal, but NOT this one. We did our research, our church did research, and every year we have a Compassion Sunday! It is REAL! What better Christmas present could you give this season, the gift of sponsorship.
