That's why I ventured out onto EBAY for the latest creations from our friends in Haiti. The designer that creates the banana leaf cards has made us some of these to sell to raise money for the orphanage.
Thanks, Misty for the reminder that this entry needs the link to eBay:

They're handmade from Banana Leaf adhered to chipboard and signed by the artist.
The people of Haiti are so excited for Barack Obama's presidency. I really hope that our foreign policies don't let them down.
If you know anyone that is interested in politics and interested in helping the children of Haiti, please direct them to look for these on eBay. Our next goal for the orphanage (besides the constant of "get them food") is to get a generator. Once we have a generator we can install ceiling fans to keep the bugs down and move the tropical air around a bit.
Some miracles take time - and Haitian adoption is one of those miracles!
