Care Package #2

Okay so I am obsessed with care packages and hunting down traveling families to take them over for us.  Do not try and hide...I will find you!!  I have even reached out to our US agency to ask if they would consider assisting our waiting families to coordinate a monthly delivery.  In the past wait times had not been so long so 1 or 2 care packages may have been great.  However, now with the 12+ month wait sending these seems to help with the lost time and supports the Foster Families.  Our Korean agency has said they would like to see care packages more often as it helps to provide Foster Families with simple supplies as well provides a connection between child and parent. So let's get these packages over there or get our kiddos home!


I just want our little man to get lots of love through our gifts and pictures while also showing our Foster Family that we care enough about him to send them when possible.  Plus it's a super fun challenge to buy all of this stuff to cram into a gallon Ziploc bag!


A special thank you goes out to Benjamin's Grandparents as they helped to make this care package possible.  My parents provided the cute little clothing, fireman plush toys, and Boo Boo Bunny while Fred's parents made a contribution that helped us to purchase a few of the other items.  Much love is coming your way little man!!! 


Another thank you goes out to a traveling family I met through Facebook that is anxiously awaiting their little girl's Travel Call.  Then they'll be on the next plane to S. Korea!  Hope to hear something any day now : )
