My mittens made it to Afghanistan!

Here's a picture I took on 1/24/2011 of the mittens I was about to send off.  The two-purple-colors mittens show up in the latest photos Ann shared with us from Afghanistan!  If you haven't seen them yet, the link is

The mittens are in the photo of the boys, towards the lower right.  Ann sent me this detail and encouraged me to post it here (and gave me permission!).

It's a great feeling to see these smiling kids, and even better to see something I donated!  It looks like the boy will be able to use these mittens for quite a while, as he grows into them!

Isn't it wonderful to be able to put a face to your mittens? It makes what we're doing so REAL!

Gwyneth,

Crazy odds! This is like winning the lottery. Just amazing.

I am going to tell Suraya Sadeed, the founder of Help the Afghan Children. She'll get a kick out of it.

Wanna meet in Vegas?
