It was TIME to clean out the play room. I told Joslyn that we had to give away some of her and Kennedy's toys to other kids who don't have very many. She freaked at first, but to my surprise soon joined in! I was so proud of her. "Mom can I give this to the kids?" At first she said they could just barrow her stuff and that they could give it back tomorrow. Eventually she said they could keep it, (with bribe of a new wading pool). She even helped me carry most of it outside so I could load it in the car. We ended up with five garbage sacks and one grocery bag (Which was Joslyn's bag, she went around filling it up on her own.) I hope that our kids can see Aaron and I doing things for others and learn to do the same. By donating old toys or volunteering time, whatever it is, every little bit helps!
Before I could get it all in the car, Joslyn posed for a picture!

How cute that she made her own bag! Isn't it so awsome how much children are willing to give to others. My kids have a heart attack if we are just throwing things away, but they are ready and happy when its for charity or the church or something.
