in Liberia, 58 children die every day from Malaria - which they get from mosquito bites. each net covers 4 children while they are sleeping.
we made enough for 4 nets!
(joshua really was into it...but made this silly face for the picture)
bailey and rebekah explaining what we were doing "in their words"
i pray it was one more little seed in my children's hearts to love and care for others...even when we don't know them and can't see them.

Courtney, you are such an amazing mom. Your children are blessed to get to learn from you every single day. And I am blessed because I get to learn from you too! Love you so much! XOXO
PS. Any baby progress?? :)
what an awesome idea and i can't wait to check out the website. we raised money for this as a church and the kids (mine included and did extra "jobs" to earn money for the nets) got so into it!! it was so neat because i think that it is something tangible that they can see and definately relate to mosquito bites (not the malaria part though). they had a mosquito net set up at our church for awhile so that everyone could see what we were buying. you have such creative ideas and i love seeing what you do daily with your kiddos. thanks for sharing!

owsome kids did a great job love them talking and telling what is was for. love you aunt kim
This is a GREAT idea - I went right to that site and looked around for a minute. What a GREAT way to help your kids get involved with something tangible and something they can understand!!! You are an AWESOME mom - always thinking of great ways to help them see the eternal perspective!
I wish I was there to hug you. You are so precious and your kids are blessed to have you.
