I just received my first care package since arriving to Rwanda and you can't imagine the smile on my face at the moment of receiving a well sized small box in brown paper. The care package was sent by my best and dearest friend Ilona back in Chicago and in addition to all the love packed in there, here what Ilona also included:
Latest season of Family Guy (perfect for those many quiet nights at site with no entertainment)
Gummy Warms
Neon Sour Gummy Warms
Sour Patch Kids
Life Savers Gummies (ok I've developed a strange craving for anything sweet the past couple of months here!! I use to never like sweets)
tic tac (5 of them)
Packets of Dentyne Ice gum and Trident!
Oral-B tooth brush
Mint Waxed floss
AfterBite itch relief (this will come in handy following all those malaria infested mosquito bites)
lip balm
band aid
Extra strength Tylenol
Antibacterial hand sanitizing spray (can't get enough of this with all the kids I come in contact with)
And of course a cute little note from Ilona... I love you girl :o)
p.s. I specially requested gummy bears and am attacking those right now. so gots to go.
