Let me first say Happy Turkey Day to everyone. In case you're living under a rock, Thanksgiving is next week. While I do have plenty to be thankful for, I can't help but think of all of those who don't. Some kids don't have warm clothes, toys, or enough food to eat. This is why it's imperative that you help out. Most of us have more than enough. So go donate food to M.U.S.T. or donate a new toy to Toys for Tots. I know there are places you can take gently worn winter coats to. Hell, throw in a pair of mittens and a hat. If anything, your heart will feel good for doing it.
Ali and Kait this year have requested that instead of gifts, they want the family to sponsor an animal at the zoo. I think it's a fine idea, even if it means that there isn't as much under the tree. Knowing that they want to be charitable means a lot to me. Ali also wants to play secret Santa to some kids that live down the street. It does my heart good to see my kids thinking of others. I feel like I'm raising my girls right.
