A while back I decided to visit the sponsors on Lemonade Makin' mama's blog. One of these sponsors is Gifts for the
Heart International. This organization is dedicated to providing joy to needy children worldwide through one simple act~the simple gift of a stuffed animal.
This simple gesture really made me stop and
REFLECT on my own life. My own little sheltered world. Now don't get me wrong, as my blog indicates I am
FRUGAL partly becaus I enjoy the thrill of the hunt and partly because of my financial situation. Yet my girls and I pray every night thanking God for our food, our shelter and our family.
Many of my girls toys come from thrift and consignment shops, yet they still have more than their basic needs. In fact, Big Sis has an addiction to stuffed animals. Which of course Lil Sis wants too.
Which leads me to want to
DONATE an entire bag full of their stuffed animals. But the important part is the
LESSON of
COMPASSION that this momma will be teaching her girls.
