Village Planting Day

I find our town's "Village Planting Day" a great opportunity for my family because even my 2-year-old son can make a contribution!

Duduza dolls

My mother started knitting Duduza dolls (comfort dolls) for her eye doctor who took them to Kenya for children who have lost their parents to AIDS. She told me about it, and between us, we have knitted over 500 dolls. I have pictures of the children with their dolls and it is so heartwarming to be able to see some child who may have nothing have something to call their very own.
