From time to time I get letters that just make me feel good. I write the blog and I do not spend much time thinking about the effects of what I do. So I am so happy when I hear from people and how the blog effects them. Blessings on the side. I remember a woman writing and saying that waiting for her child became so much easier after she read the blog. What more can one ask than to make another life easier. I was really moved by that. Recently I got this particularly sweet letter. Because of what I do with the babies, I get to inspire this young mind.
Dear Amanda,
I am Phoebe, I live in Brisbane, Australia and I am inspired by your work with your orphanage, it has always been a dream of mine to open an orphanage in China. I really enjoyed your blog, as caring for babies and toddlers is something I really enjoy. I was wondering if you let volonteers from over seas (such as Australia) help you? I am only 13 at the moment but in the future I would be over joyed to help out with your amazing work in the orphanage.
Keep up the amazing work
Phoebe

Dear Amanda,
I am thankful for you and you inspire me to be a better person.
We love you.
You are incredible. You are an 'institution' in the adoption blog community.
I was very touched by this girl's letter. What an amazing heart she has and incredible role model in you.
