Since I am from the Philippines, my entire family still lives there.  It's very hard to make money there because the economy is not very good and a lot of people are unemployed.  So, once or twice a year my hubby and I send a care package to them.  The challenge is to find things they need that aren't real big and weigh too much.  Most of the time the cost for shipping alone is between $50-$100.  This time we are going to send mostly clothes that Rachel has grown out of and clothes I won't wear anymore.  We will also send some extra toys we have for my sister's and brother's children.  I hope they like what we send this time.
