cute...

As most of you know (and if you don't, sorry, now you do), Dan and I, and our GREAT friends the Savage's are going to Uganda in September with Childrens HopeChest. I am trying to prepare the kids as much as possible for the fact that we are going to be gone for 10 days, etc etc. So, needless to say, we talk about Africa and Uganda ALL the time. Eli and Ava can even find it on the globe.

So, yesterday we were just talking and Eli said (no idea what or what brought it up) "Mommy, I don't want to have another baby in our family." Me: "Ok, Eli. But, how would you feel about adopting a baby from Uganda. One that doesn't have a mommy or daddy and needs love and a home." Eli ponders this for a while. Ava, meanwhile, says: "OH YES Mommy!!! I want to do that!! Will you PLEASE bring me one home with you???" :) Is she a girl after my own heart or what??? If only it were that easy, Sweetheart.

Feed The Forgotten

For $0.14, you can feed someone in Uganda a meal of posho and beans. (posho is cornmeal, which is filling and beans are protein). There is an urgent need there. People--adults and children, are starving to death EVERY DAY. Take in for a moment. . .

$0.14 a meal

$2.86 for 20 days

$1 per FAMILY

$20 feed a family for 20 days.

I spent $11 on lunch yesterday. How much did you spend? How much is your grocery budget every week, every month?
