~Six days to Go~

Hello...It's taken all day to actually just get to this page to write...but that's ok, since the boys and I have been working on Christmas gifts for the family...fun stuff, too. I can't say too much so that no family member figures out what we're doing!

Let's see...the homeless that slept outside the shelter (because they couldn't get in) were an interesting bunch.
When we pulled up to the area under the bridge where they were sleeping on the ground next to each other, the boys were blown away. I sensed their grief and sadness and yet their anticipation to help them by feeding them breakfast tacos.
We arrived at the Rodriguez's home at about 3:45 am and the house was already abuzz with cooking, frying the eggs, and filling the shells! Caleb got to help with the filling and he was excited to hand them to Isaac who loaded the coolers filled with them.
It was an eye opening experience and we'll probably do this every year!
Here is a pix of the kids cooking. I'll post Caleb's at another time.
So much more to tell, but I must go now.
