Pay It Forward


How many school supplies can you buy for children at the Langano school for $50?  I'll tell you: A LOT!  The kids had so much fun picking stuff out at Target to take to the church to send to the children in Africa.
My grandparents gave each family member $10 with a letter challenging us to "pay it forward" and use the money for good any way we saw fit.  The kids knew what they wanted to do with it, so we put all our money together and went wild in the school supply section.  Of course, Kylie also wanted to make sure they had pretty colors of tshirts, so we bought some of those, too!
Thanks, Nana & Papa B!  We had a blast!  The children in Africa thank you, too!
I mean, how blessed are we to have such wonderful, thoughtful, generous, loving, compassionate family leaders?  Love you guys!
