Charity

We had a Family Home Evening lesson on being children of God, and ways to show that we are children of God. One of the topics mentioned was helping the poor and needy. Today A got a bucket, cleaned it out, filled it with water, and was going to walk down the street asking people if they were poor and needed water. I LOVE HER. We looked up the food bank and saw that they didn't need water but they did need many other things, so she put her water outside for any stray cats and we made up a box for the food bank with canned beans, mac & cheese boxes, soap, and shampoo that we don't need. Then she taught C that she shouldn't just think about herself; she should think about others.

More fun

Today the clones came over, and A's "fiance" came dressed as Superman. He also came carrying a Supergirl costume he made for A--the front insignia and a little cape, both made of paper with tape on the back to stick on her shirt. SO cute. A reminded him that "when we're for real grownups we'll for real get married" but I don't think he's forgotten. All of the kids together made a rock band and gave us a concert, too. Fake guitar, drums, piano, and recorder.
