After having already put aside the necessary birthday decorations to pack for the party we'll try to organise locally for 23 children, I am now collecting the birthday presents for those children whose birthdays will be from May through to July.
A colourful skirt and blouse with earrings to match, as well as a photo album bought by Paula for Ivanilde.
A blouse and leggings with earrings to match, as well as a photo album bought by Mafalda for Patricia.
A porcelain doll I bought for Lavinia.
I believe presents should be bought taking into account the personal characteristics of the children, or what I personally seem to know about them from my multiple trips there, and so far they mostly have, which is a "challenge" in itself;
The idea now will be to try to organise one more birthday party this year to include those children, whose birthdays are from May through to August and then a third one next January for the remaining ones. One French "godmother" who has already been there with me is willing to travel with me there next September and I hope somebody else will want to join me at the beginning of next year, so that all the children will have been entitled to a one life time birthday party ("treats" they have never had access to).
