YOU can help change the world...

My dad and Jody are now in the air on their way back home from Africa. To say this trip was life changing for my dad would be an understatement by the sounds of it. Apparently, he is going to be unrecognizable upon his return. I just looked at a picture of him on Jody's blog and I saw dimples. Dimples? I didn't know my dad even had dimples! I was asking Cassie, "did you know Dad had dimples?!" She said, "NO, because he's never smiled so big before!" I am SO EXCITED to hear everything about his trip! Every time Cassie or my mom talked to him, they said it was like talking to a different person. They both said they've never heard him so happy in their lives. He was presented with a live chicken from the chief in one of the villages which he thought was just so cool! Go to Jody's blog to see a picture of him with the chicken along with all kinds of other pictures of the beautiful faces clean water is helping. It is truly amazing to see what a difference this is making and for my dad to get to meet, talk to, hold these people and children whose lives will be saved because of clean water is such an experience!
