Today we helped fill boxes at our church and preschool for Operation Christmas Child. It was fun to have the girls help and be very excited about what the child who would get the box would like to have. Of course it centered around what they would like. Alyssa even said at one point that the girls who would get one of the boxes she filled, "would want to share it with me." I explained that these boxes were going to go to kids who may not have any Christmas presents otherwise. They may not even have a mommy or daddy to take care of them or a place to live that could shelter them like we do. Hannah really understands that what we did today was a was of serving God. Hannah really impressed us by the way she was able to fold up the pre-printed Operation Christmas Child boxes all by herself, even reveling in the act of teaching mommy what to do.
