Malehloa Update

We have been SO blessed the past few weeks to get not one but two updates about our sweet girl.

She sent us a picture of her pudgy little hand and my heart just about melted.



Her letter to us was written by her mama.

I am glad to know her mama can read and write.

This is what the letter said:

“Dear Chad and Amy, I am still living well with my family. How do you do? I am very happy to receive your letter. In the letter I found a t-shirt, gloves, card, picture, and stickers. Your letter reached me on the 14th July 2012, (Her b-day gift) but we celebrated Christmas well with my family. It is winter and very cold now. Snow sometimes falls on the mountains. I like to play house modern. I like the red colour. As for now I walk and talk. I have sent you my annual progress report last month with a photo inside (last month’s update). I thank you with everything you are doing for me. Greet all your family.
                                Yours, Malehloa.
This letter was written by Mabafoleng Letsatsi, Malehloa’s mother and translated by Hilda, volunteer.”

My heart is full.

How can you adore someone so much that you have never met and only seen two photos of?
