Every May our church closes it's doors and goes out to help the community. We have never done it as a family before because it just seemed difficult with the ages if our kids.
This year I signed us up to collect food at Teader Joes. We stood outside, both kids in the stroller and asked people to donate food for a local foodbank. It was fun and nice to see how giving some people were. It made me check my heart a bit to see how giving I am.
I don't think Courtney really understood what we were doing, but she had fun saying hi to all the people. Both girls did great considering they were in the stroller for 2 hours. Coco got a cookie as a reward for her help.
She was super sad that we didn't go to church that day. She cried for a while saying, "I want to go to church!". I love that she loves going to church. She would be devastated if we ever took that from her.
