As some of you may know, our boys are a little picky in the eating department. And of course, we've tried many a thing to get them to open up the nourishment hatch...we've gone through bribery to PediaSure to reverse psychology and then back on through them again! Lately, we've upped the anty and started talking to them about how there are a ton of children who go to bed hungry each and every night. And although Bear is still a bit too little to comprehend such a huge thought, the idea has really struck a cord with Jackie B and got him thinking about a lot of 'big kid' things. Sooo when a 'Crop Walk' for the starving children in Somalia came up at church, Gigi and Grandad thought what a perfect way for Jack to do something great for those kiddos less fortunate in the food department. Not only did they want Jack to walk the 3 miles with them, but he also needed to raise some money all by his lonesome! Whoa...this was big! But not surprisingly, Jack stepped up to the challenge! He asked one neighbor for money all by himself and only had to be carried some of the way on the walk. : ) We're very proud of you, Jackie B! What a great start to doing great things for those who need you!
