The Beelam family with Auntie Rose |
Gift for David |
There was great delight when they arrived with so many useful gifts for our family, and with a birthday gift for their special friend, David Karisa, who they sponsor.
Sheila and Stuart have been supporting Sue's work since before their won daughters were born.
Sheila said: "Stu and I first went to Turtle bay in 1995, the year after we got married and whilst there I was worried I may be pregnant, so had a test done by the doctor at the hotel and found out I was pregnant with Hannah!
" So we call her the Turtle Bay baby!
"We then came back in 2004 with the girls when Han was 9 and Lucy 6, followed by 2007 and 2011.
"We visited the school Sue and Dave were at and brought exercise books and pens and they showed us the plot of land and told us their dreams...it was so magical to then visit the Happy House once it had opened and see what they had managed to achieve!
It was after our last visit that we became sponsors to young David
Sheila, Stuart and the girls enjoyed a lovely day at the Happy House with our family and we are just so grateful to them for their continued love and kindness
*Hannah is writing a blog about her experience of introducing our children to one of her own favourite activities and which will appear here next week.
