ONE.... Updated!

Alright, I admit, that was a short blogging break!

I was checking some of my favorite blogs this morning,

and came across a great deal on these...

My sweet friend, Juli, at Bargain Believer

posted some great school supply deals.

Why does this matter to Kolfe Orphanage?

I am so glad you asked! :o)

Well, the way I count, there are now

around 150-160 of them...

School starts back up in a September,

and these kids get ONE of everything for the year...

ONE shirt, ONE pair of pants, ONE PENCIL...

How much do your kids get at the start of a school year?

PENCILS are easy to pack, and don't take much room.

This week when you are shopping, and see a pack of

pencils for next to nothing, pick up a couple

of extra packs for the Kolfe Boys.

If you are feeling extra generous, you could

sharpen them for us, if not... my kids work cheap!

A bunch of these erasers would be great, too!

Kristelle has declared the hard erasers on cheap pencils...

"USELESS! Why do they even have them?"

While you are at it, keep your eyes out for these...

SOCCER JERSEYS.

ONE shirt a year isn't much!

Wouldn't it be neat to see lots of boys and young men

in "new to them" soccer jerseys or soccer t-shirts?

Gizachew sent photos this weekend

from their annual "Kolfe Cup".

(Dorm room vs dorm room playing their favorite sport.)

The youngest Kolfe Cup team.

Update: Ah ha!!!

I think I can see why he sent this photo...

I had wondered a bit why Gizachew

chose to send me this photo.

Upon some careful inspection tonight...

there is a 15 year old hiding in this group of littles!

Our Mezgebu!

Can't wait to hug these cuties!

We are kind'a partial to the young man on the left.
That's our Emnatu. :o)
