This morning I was wrapping up the Christmas presents for the little girl whose name we got at church. When I was in the basement looking for a box, I saw some books that had been put away to donate to the library. Looking through the stack I found 4-5 books that any 5 year old would like. I also saw a few stuffed animals that Katie had been playing with recently. Hmmm.....
I took one small one upstairs to ask Katie if we could give it to another little girl. I explained that this little girl probably didn't have anything to sleep with at night. She had to leave all of her toys and stuffed animals at her old home, and it may have made her very sad.
Stuffed animals are like gold to Katie. She is very protective of them - has names and ages for them all. Some are related, some are students, etc. As Katie thought about it, I got ready for her argument as to why she shouldn't give it away.
Katie was quiet, and then asked "Well, do you think I could give her more?"
So Katie found 2 stuffed animals to give away, and made me one proud mommy.
