The kids say "hello"

Nisar took a video of the kids saying hello to "Uncle March and Aunt April". Makes sense, right? Love hearing their voices and giggling.

An idea of what things cost........

I thought I would show a sample month of expenses for the 6 children living at the "LOVE GOD HOME" supported through India Orphans fund. Ranjana gives us a monthly report of expenses which varies a little depending on seasonal and school needs. A sample month,...bill expenses in ruppees. Mark gets to transfer the amount into US dollars. See ,...that MBA has totally paid off!
