My boys are lucky. They have a lovely childhood full of fun, food and love. Unfortunately not every child in the world can say the same. I have been tagged in a blog hop by Hollie Smith. Fellow blogger Merry from Patch of Puddles, is raising awareness of the charity World Vision.

I have recently been worrying about choosing the best school for big man, in Africa many children have to leave school in order work. You can read more about the work of this charity into lost childhoods.

Up until 30th August the charity are able to obtain matched funding by the DFID, so the government will double every pound you donate. If you are able to make a donation please follow this link to the Worldvision website.

As this is a blog hop raising awareness I am going to tag a couple of fellow new bloggers. Laura at pass the sedatives and Helen at Mummy to the Max and ask them if they will help spread the word.
