last dec 2012, we had another charity event as our team christmas party. we spent the day with the orphans at mc donald's - xia and the kids of our officemates included. this was our 2nd year and we wish to continue on in the next years to come... i have blogged about our very first event at jollibee in 2011 here: xia gives back!
i don't want to miss sharing this one (albeit very delayed!) - so that xia will always remember the value of giving and sharing. she has witnessed it anyway since age 2, so hopefully she will do the same when she can already afford it!
we came early at the venue and since we were early birds, she had the place to herself for a good 20mins :)
the kids from the precious heritage came as our guests and we welcomed them with food, games, prizes, warm smiles and friendships! they all surely had fun, and our kids too!!!
everyone had fun including us!!! it was definitely heart-warming to see the less-privileged kids having the time of their lives :) they enjoyed the games and we certainly enjoyed their company even just for the mere 3 hrs...
the highlight of the party was of course the presence of mc do mascots!!! the kids went really crraazzyyy and guess what, we scrambled with the kids too! hahahaha!
the party was once again a success! the kids went home happy with their loot bags and took home goodies like sacks of rice, boxes of noodles and canned goods, candies and some toiletries.
nothing beats the feeling of making other people (especially kids) happy! we hope to make more and more of them happy in our next GT outreach party.
and to my little one xia, may you value the blessings from God and more so learn the value of sharing such blessings... may you grab all the chance you can get to be a blessing to others!
