I didn't want to much time to go by before I told you about my Christmas morning, so here it is!
Captain O (my sister) woke me up and said that we had to go to my Mom and Dad's room (this is what we do every year). Once we got in their room we all sat in the bed and my Dad went outside to look and see if Santa was still there- he wasn't so we could go out and look and see what came.
Now I have to tell you something just in case you didn't know it.
This year for Christmas we gave up presents and asked for money to donate to Cambodia instead.
So back to the story...
We went out into the living/dining room and there was money on the tree and on the floor. The money on the floor led us to the washing machine which was the "jackpot". There was so much money in there!! We collected all of the money and saw that there were three boxes with our names on them. Sticking out were games for us. It worked like this...
There was a question and you had to think of the answer. There were true and false, riddles and multiple choice. Underneath each question there was a 1 dollar bill, 5 dollar bill, 10 dollar bill, or 20 dollar bill. There was one 50 dollar bill in the middle and at the very end there was a 100 dollar bill!! I counted all of the money that I got and there was so much I couldn't believe it!!
Out of what we all got from Santa and what family and friends donated we will make the Cambodians very happy!!
Thank you to every body that either donated a backpack or money!! You will all be a big part in making many Cambodian Family's dreams come true!! I will be posting pictures in March/April of the good that you all did!!
