Feeding the homeless

I took the kids to a Hands4Hope activity (it's a kids community service group we are involved in). We assembled 200 sack lunches and drove down to downtown Sacramento to hand them out, along with donated warm clothes from the "Warm and Fuzzy Drive". As we drove in, the kids saw all the tents lined up and all the junk around and the homeless wandering the streets. One of my kids with tears in her eyes said, "Mom- I feel so guilty!" I asked why, to which I got the response, "...Because we have SO much!" What a great learning experience for all my kids. One in which they will never forget. We'll be doing more of these types of activities. Free, and PRICELESS!
