August 2010 – Mike Dunne
Not everyone can travel to Namibia. Some are unable to venture across the ocean and meet these wonderful children here in Arandis. This is not to say there aren’t wonderful children where you are, but these kids have become special to me. A teacher I met in Brevard County, decided to send along a hug for me to bring to these children. Thank you, Kate.
There was a catch, I had to complete the making as it would not fit in my luggage. I found stuffing and was able to sew, my mother would have been proud, to completion the hug. My sewing may be a little crude, but the concept and the enjoyment observed on the faces of those children who have had their hug from an American Teacher was worth my slight discomfort.
