Green Polka Dot skirt

Today I am selling this cute, green, polka-dot skirt.  It is made to fit an 18 month old, but fits my skinny 3 year old sister hitting her knee.  












It also comes with this little rolled flower clip.   It is made from the same fabric as the skirt  with  a button in the middle.  


                               
   This set is $10.00 If you would like to order this, please email grace.kanzatgmaildotcom.

Rubble wear

At the orphanage there is an organization called "Rubble Wear".  "Rubble wear" is rubble that the nannies at the orphanage, collect from the streets of Port-au-Prince and make into jewelry.  Then the money that they get from it, goes to them and taking care of their families. 
While we were there, they were selling some there and a couple of the adoptive families (mine included) decided to bring some of it home and sell it for the nannies.  I'll post some pictures of the necklaces that I got so that you can see them.

 These necklaces are $25.00.   If you would like to order one,  please email me at grace.kanzatgmaildotcom. 

Here I will post the adjustable necklaces.

back from haiti


 
We're back from Haiti!  It was a great time to bond with the kids, and while we were there, we also got to meet the kids' birth mother.  So we had an amazing time, and it was really cool to have our whole family in one country, one city, in one room.  
This is a picture of my sweet siblings Vladimy and Tessa waiting for breakfast in the hotel restaurant.






This was Ian's first time to Haiti and he did amazingly well.  Especially for him.  Everyone thought that he would freak out, but he was really great, even through meeting his new siblings. 

 When we were at the orphanage, Ian went and hung out with in the boys room.  He walked into the room and said "I am stronger than all of you."  I think he had an okay time with that other than being beat up by boys much smaller than him even though there were so many.                                                            
 This is Yoldine and her best friend Lovencia. 


Brothers.

Sisters!


 Here are some pictures of some of the little girls in the dresses I made...                                                                                             


 This is Rickza, a sweet and beautiful nine year old who Yoldine is also very close to. 
This is her little sister Erica,  super spunky and adorable and very happy.  
Cute, cute, cute!



 This is Sheldine,  she is super sweet, and quiet, and ADORABLE! 


Also, I taught her momma how to do her hair while we were there and if you look at the picture I think we did a very nice job.


This is her sister Nephtalie. She is super cute. 

We had a really amazing time, and look forward to going again to get them.  For other ways to help, pray for the adoptions of these kids, for my family's adoption, the kids on my blog, and other kids at Maison.
