Our girls love giving to less fortunate children, it's such a special and powerful thing to do. It really teaches our children and us that a simple act of kindness and thoughtfulness can be truly life changing. My one wish is that everyone that is able to do a shoebox should. The smile, fun and hope it brings one child and their family is enormous. My husband, three daughters and I have made up shoeboxes for the last three years through our church.
