Vinotha

2 years ago, I introduced you to our "4 babies"!!!

Here's an update on our "2nd eldest baby"...Written by Mr. Hubby on his facebook post (this was the reason why Mr. Hubby couldn't join us on our trip to Busan, S.Korea
Apart from attending his cousin's wedding of course)

******************************************
"At the end of 2005 I met Jamie, and in 2006 we decided to sponsor together a 4 year old girl in a very remote village in India, our first meaningful "project" together as a couple. For the past 10 years we exchanged letters and photos and she told us how what she bought/did with our monthly payments.

Today I was able to meet Vinotha, now a 14 year old exceptionally warm and pleasant teen, thats doing well in school and an excellent drawing artist and a guitar player to-be. So blessed to be able to see her home and talk to her and just be in her presence.

Definitely something i would love for @jamiechaw to experience, even though it's challenging to get there.

Thanks to Compassion for this opportunity, they are honestly doing great works globally, I can personally vouch for that now!"

******************************************
Am glad Mr. Hubby got this opportunity to meet Vinotha and her family and witness the "fruits of our labour" + God's amazing hand on her family!

We can all play a small part in transforming lives... just say YES today and make it happen!!! Their future is literally in our hands...(We have witness it 1st hand)

Here's a short clip of Mr. Hubby's first hand experience seeing a toilet built for Vinotha's family (shall we complain about our "thrones" that we sit at home???): https://youtu.be/wb50m4QGIfk

4 babies????

Not only are we blessed with baby sienna and lil bro baby KarMie#2, but we actually have 4 babies in total!!! 2 of which are so grown up now...we had them when they were just kids!!! Now they are teenagers...wowww how time flew by...

Let me introduce them. They are angel yunita (13 yrs old) and vinotha maruthupandi (11 yrs old). Angel is from Indonesia and Vinotha is from India. We chose to "adopt" from these 2 countries as its the closest to where me n mr. hubby originated from. We couldn't find any child to sponsor from Malaysia...we've had them since we were dating and never regretted...it's so heart warming everytime we received letters, pics and updates from them... Knowing that our $$ has been well spent and put to good use!!!
I would encourage each and every one of u to do ur part and help a lil' one in need... 
The world would be a better place if each one of us play a part in it! 
After all we are all gonna die some day...
If $$ is the issue, Just skip ur weekly Starbucks coffee sessions :) 
God has been showering us with blessings upon blessings so that we can be a blessing to others!!!

It's never too late to start...just take a look at their website... there's so many children waiting for u!!! also there's babies being born everyday that need our help!
