Some of my friends, who also sponsor children in Gojo, Ethiopia, and I have been comparing the contents of the letters we have received this week from our “Gojo kids”. My letter from 6 year old Elias was humorously different from the other children’s letters in one aspect. Where the other children listed their favorite song, Elias answered, “I cannot sing.” I admire his honesty:)

When my granddaughter (now 11) was 7 years old, I told her i love her more than anyone in the whole world. She said to me in an amazed voice “Even more than Jesus?! You CAN’T love anyone more than you love Jesus!” Out of the mouths of babes! It made my day to know how much she loves Jesus and at such a young age. We have a wonderful Christian home, so I know she will love Jesus for the rest of her life.

ha aha aha.. that’s really funny….I consider this very special child. He is a star in our planet. Although for many people seem strange, but I actually consider it a very brilliant.

Its interesting to read all these comments about children. I insisted to my 6 year old that she needed to wash her hands before having her meals. She told me that Jesus wasnt doing the same every other time. she could remember that at one time, Jesus fed so many people and it wasnt recorded that He washed his hands!!

CLINTON (age 5) was in his bedroom looking worried When his Mom asked
what was troubling him, he replied, ‘I don’t know what’ll happen with
this bed when I get married. How will my wife fit in it?’

Out of the mouth of babes I tell ya! I used to love to watch the show “Kids Say the Darndest things” and indeed they do say the darndest things. Great post!

A letter I got from my little guy in Brazil started with, “I love you, I love you, I love you, I adore you!

What a kid!! He is the best!.

At the end of one of her letters, my little girl Linda asked me to “Please pray for my brother so he will be an intelligent boy.” I don’t know if he was having trouble in school or was just being an irksome little brother! I was encouraged that she asked for prayer for someone other than herself.

This is great! You will have to write extra-sweet things so she doesn’t have a picture of you as an ogre who likes to be around vicious animals.

my sponsored child from indonesia told me in his recent letter he did not yet know the song “the age of stone”. i puzzled over that for a while and finally realized he meant “rock of ages”. probably a translation issue but it still makes me smile
