I love having a day dedicated each year to serving in our communities. The project we went to was perfect for our family. It was at a cleaning up a cemetery. There were jobs to fit each age group. Robert was assigned to weed whack, while the kids & I gathered pine cones. The kids stayed focused for the first hour and even filled a few buckets.
They had worked hard, so I gave them a little speech about respecting the graves, and then I turned them loose. These three (pictured above) favored the tall headstones because they were "hiding from bad guys". 3 year old girls have wild imaginations. And Tabor is happy to tag along.
