Raveesha

A while back I wrote about the Girl Effect. I also mentioned a few ways we can all help. My friend Jocelyn was simultaneously trying to get some children sponsored. The stars aligned and our family sponsored Raveesha, pictured above.

Raveesha lives with her sister and her parents in Sri Lanka. The girls are still processing what exactly this means. They have learned a little about Sri Lanka and have learned a little about the fact that not all children have things like warm beds and full bellies.

In the next week, we will be putting together our first letter to Raveesha. I am sure it will contain some stickers and other little treats. I will keep you all posted on how this experience develops for us.

Up next -- kids club (aka the closet under the stairs) will be revealed. It is so cute and the girls love it.
