Introducing Luckson!!

Luckson is the second youngest of my kidlets. He's 5 years old and from Haiti. Like Robert, I am also Luckson's correspondent sponsor. He was a surprise to me. When he showed up on my account one day I was shocked that there were suddenly 4 kidlets instead of 3 there. But he was a pleasant surprise. He's absolutely adorable. His picture honestly made me go "awwwe!" He looks so sad and shy, looking up at the camera with a "won't you please sponsor me?" look. A look that says he's been passed over before, and he's used to it, and that it's ok.. so and so deserves a sponsor too. Honestly when I post his picture a little further down in this post, you'll see what I mean. A great thing about Compassion is I can log on to my "my Compassion" account and see all previous pictures of my sweet ones. Luckson's previous picture is just as cute as the his current one. He's so little and he looks like he would have a tuff guy attitude about him.
Luckson makes my heart smile through every letter. For a little lad he sure sends long letters! In his first letter he told me all about how he's learning to read and write, and that now he can write his vowels! (He dictates his letters to his mama.) Before he even received one of my letters that I've sent to him, he told me he loves me very much. *Melts* Before this little man knew anything about me except my name, he loved me. That is so amazing. This little boy,  a gajillion miles away.. loves me. Wow. Of course I think he's just perfect and love him too.. but he loved me before he knew me.
Just yesterday I received another letter from him telling me all about how he celebrates Christmas in Haiti. He said he blows up balloons and decorates his classroom and he and his classmates celebrate the birth of Jesus. How cool is that.
He made my heart grow about 10 sizes when he thanked me for the Christmas money (That his financial sponsor sent) and told me about the shoes he's going to buy with it. If you gave a kid here in Canada money, chances are they'd run out and buy the toy they've been wanting.. but he's buying shoes. I'm glad his sweet little feet are going to be protected from the elements and anything laying on the ground that could potentially hurt him.
Look at that face. Doesn't he just look too freaking cute?!? Gah! He's precious.

This is his other picture that I mentioned. Look at that attitude. heehee. Goodness. I just want to snatch him up and cuddle him till the cows come home.


Off to get ready for work! Have a blessed day folks!
