Pauline in Africa 2013 Version

My friend at work Pauline returned to Kenya this spring to visit her family and friends. She spent 5 weeks there this time and I would say she probably had a very good visit because I missed her terribly.

While she was there she visited an orphanage and gave out some little dresses to the girls. They look adorable in them. I'm lucky enough to also know the person who makes these little dresses with her mum. Mary also works in the Cancer Center and she and her mother make these up and donate them by the bulk when they hear that someone is going on a mission trip or are in need of sweet little dresses for little girls. These dresses were carried to Kenya a little earlier in the year by the father of another co-worker, Crystal, whose parents live in Kenya. What a group effort.

These are just precious with so many little flourishes and added touches to make a girl feel special.
I got to see three of them recently and I can only imagine how special these girls felt just by looking at the smiles on their faces. Check out the smiles below, oh and they do LOVE those pockets.


Good job Mary and Mary's "MUM" for the making of the dresses.
Good job Pauline being there to bring smiles to these faces.
Good job Crystal's dad for getting the dresses to Kenya.
