This is Olanda, my World Vision little girl. Today, she turned five! I started sponsoring her in January, in memory of my mom, on the first anniversary of her death. It is amazing to me the healing and joy that comes from reaching outside yourself and touching the life of someone else. Olanda has written to me through a counselor. She hopes to grow up and be a nurse. She lives with her parents, brother, and two sisters. Her dad is a farmer. She lives in Haiti. I mailed her a bunch of stuff for her birthday, and I do hope it put a smile on her face!
