Ella playing baseball

I've just found the facebook page for Ella's baseball team and there was a treasure trove of pictures.  Enjoy!!

Ella earns another badge

 She is just a little bit shorter....

Julia is a gymnast!

 Girls all I need is one nice photo to commemorate Julia's first day at gymnastics.
Now smile nicely.

Julia!  Where do you get these ideas??

Nice smiles please girls.

Um, no.

I've now lost all control.

Maybe I should enrol Julia into clown school instead?

Heifer Read to Feed program

Once again Ella's school is participating in the Heifer Read to Feed program, which is a Hong Kong based charity that raises money to support families in need in Xunhua County, Huzhu County and Pingan County, China.

Heifer provides livestock and training in animal husbandry to families in China.  They also promote gender equality and promote women's development, and provide training in natural disaster resistance, health and nutrition and environmental protection.  Their official website is here.

We are seeking sponsors to pay either per book read or a lump sum.  Books must be read by Ella over the month of February only.

Please comment on this blog post, email or call me if you are interested in sponsoring Ella.  I am happy to front you all a loan until the summer time at a competitive rate of interest :)
