Advent Calendar

Aunt Amy made this advent calendar for their family.  Each day they do whatever the card says.  Today Eden came home from school and told her mom that she turned around and let a boy go ahead of her.  On Monday night for their Family Home Evening they made care packages for the homeless.  I had two of them in my car.  Yesterday after I picked Duncan up at school we came to a stop light and a homeless man was standing at the intersection.  Right away Duncan grabbed one of the bags and we gave it to the man.  It was such a wonderful feeling and he seemed so happy that we gave him something.  The bag had socks, wet wipes, bottled water, and some small food items with a little note that the kids made for the bags.  I appreciated so much the opportunity to be a part of such a wonderful activity.
