(Get a load of this!!!)
Melissa said after my post about the cost of no stick cooking spray in Croatia (it's not even available in Portugal) that she was moved to encourage her class to collect items that are hard to find on the mission field.
Convenience items are almost non-existent here, so all these items will be cherished!
The girls have already carried Fruit Roll Ups to school to show the kids how cool American snacks are! And with these sugar free snacks, I've been given that boost I needed with my diet.
Two boxes arrived yesterday with what appears to be all the items pictures here except the Pam spray. Due to restrictions about aerosol cans, they'll have to ship the Pam spray by boat.
I tell you what....after all the trouble these folks have gone through to be a blessing to us...I'm so humbled it makes me want to cry.
Thank you Melissa and girls!
Our prayers are that God would bless you abundantly for your thoughtfulness and sacrifice.

Delighted to meet you! Yes, oh yes, I know the joys of packages on the field. I just began this blogin' adventure and simple amazed to find other missionary moms sharing their lives. I'll be following along with your journey for our Lord.
Hugs from this missionary mommy,
