So Sweet

All of our kids have a deep sense of compassion for people who are homeless. In fact it is to the point that if we see a person with a sign asking for money, some of our kids will even cry if we don't give any to them. They worry about people who are homeless every time we see one. Scott and I have mixed feelings about giving money, although we do it. We usually give the kids the money and they take it up to the person. So one Sunday we decided to make bags. We filled them with protein snacks and then the kids all on their own decided to also put pictures they made in the bags. We keep the bags in the car. Now when we see a homeless person we give them a bag full of snacks. (Although I worry that the person is a little disappointed that we aren't giving them cash, but that's a whole other story.) The other day Avery brought me this picture and said, "This is for a homeless man. Next time we see him, he can have it." Brought tears to my eyes! What a sweetie she is!!
