Words can’t describe the warmness in your heart, when you watch your child give selflessly of themselves without prompting. I call these “proud mama” moments. I know you are not here to share this experience with us, but let me assure you that I have been experiencing “proud mama” moments for you. Your children have been the most adaptable group; never complaining when plans change (and boy can they change) :), offering their assistance without being asked, giving of their time and energy without expecting anything in return. If you have had any doubts as to the fruits of your labors, I want to put your minds at ease and let you know that you have all done a great job. God has blessed me through watching your children give of themselves to our new Russian friends!
God Bless,
Brandy Gettys “proud mama”

Mrs. Gettys, I also give my thanks for taking such good care of our kids. It was difficult to let them go off to a foreign country without us, but the decision was made easier by the knowledge that they have such competant and caring staff and sponsors looking after them. Please give Katrina a hug from me and let her know I love her!

It warms a mother’s heart knowing that their child is being taken care of. It really means a lot to me knowing that there are loving, caring, christian individuals doing the job. They are in great hands and we are grateful for that. So, I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Tell Nathan that I love him and miss him sooooo much!! Give him a great big hug for me and, also, Stephanie. We are praying for you guys every day and know that the children are experiencing a once in a lifetime experience and will be forever changed because of it. Keep the posts up because I live for each and every one of them!
Love
Jackie Green
