Here are the items on our wish list. Please do not feel at all obligated to actually get any of these items. We will always update this posting with new stuff. And if you actually want to make us vibrantly happy please post what you are sending in the comments section of the post so multiple people don't send the same thing. Thanks and we love you guys.
Patrick and Erin
PLEASE SEND THINGS USING THE US POSTAL SERVICE!! FEDEX OPENS AND TAXES EVERYTHING AND THEN THE PEACE CORPS OFFICE REFUSES TO PAY AND WE CANNOT OBTAIN OUR PACKAGES. WE HAVE SUCCESSFULLY RECIEVED THINGS FROM THE US POSTAL SERVICE.
-powdered gatorade, any flavor
-Stickers or any small give away prizes (I am visualizing US Toy stuff) for use as sort of literacy scooby snacks
-Comic Books as a way to make reading interesting
-A Reading Assessment... okay teachers and library folk, we are struggling a little bit with how to gauge reading levels of our children and any tips or advice would be great, so send us an email. Also if any of you have some sort of actual assessment tool you could send, that would be great as well. Just remember we have 97 kids that will soon be increasing to 117.
-***any thing along the lines of granola bars, power bars, pop-tarts*** really anything to mix up flavors. While the flavors of Jamaica are wonderful and rich and spicy, a good ol' dose of old fashion American processed fake food hits the spot in between helpings of peas and rice.

Erin & Patrick,
Comin' your way--- Phase 10 (slightly used), and since I am shoe shopping with Jodi tonight, I'll get a pair of nice (leather) flip flops.
Mom
You're the best, ma!
The black "dressy slippers" will be on the way shortly along with some sunscreen. If you have a SPF preference, let me know.
um, I need tee shirt sizes for both of you??
Is there any snack food that you guys would like??
Well, I finally got around to viewing your blog, very nice. We'll see if the Starks' can't send something your way. It may be some week old Fizza Factory crust, but it will be sent with love. Bill & Vickie
Football will be sent your way as soon as we return from Ireland. Great blogging, guys!
Alan is sending soccer ball and airpump.
Hey Big!
A care package is coming your way from me :) In it, from your list, includes:
-Bullfrog
-2 pairs of Old Navy flip flops
-2 boxes of granola bars
-Harry Potter #7
There are also some other items in there that you didn't request, so I'll keep those a surprise :)
I hope you are doing well. I miss you a ton, Erin!
Little Brother Love,

Ok well I already addressed and sealed a little package to ya'll last night, without seeing the updated post. Sooooooo I'll hit a teacher supply store in august when i'm back in STL!
I definitely miss the powdered gatorade. That is on our list of things for our parents to send our way too.
Hey guys, sounds like your having a life changing experience. Just remember never take it seriously, if ya never take it seriosuly, ya never get hurt, ya never get hurt, ya always have fun, and if you ever get lonely, just go to the record store and visit your friends. A qoute by Penny Lane, I thought Pat might like that. I hope you have some good music down there. If not let me know of some songs to burn on to CD's for ya. Other than that school and football start next week, along with another graduate class, so I will try and keep up on your blog. See ya!!! Tyler A.K.A. nutsack
