Getting ready..

This year has certainly been the most trying when it comes to getting things ready for school children. But as we are getting closer and closer, things are coming together. We have a great group of volunteers coming out to help us load up the supplies as well as a group of 13 helping us deliver them. As I was having breakfast this morning, I was talking to my friend Eleanor, she offered the insight that the best part about it all is that perhaps we are inspiring the next generation to think of those around them and how they can help.

That's it, isn't it... I hope I am setting the right example for my children, but also for my students in the classroom, and the neighbors children and so on. The amazing thing about all of this, is that given the opportunity, people from all walks of life, come forward and bond together to make a greater difference.
