I have awesome kids....
They've been stockpiling aluminum cans all summer (they've been saving to buy a game cube-we have a nickel deposit in Iowa). They've been storing them behind the chicken shed in the "$12.00" bags until they had enough. They asked Mr. Youthere last night to take them to the recycling shed today-all 18 bags-so they could donate the money to the Hurricane victims. I'm blessed...I really, really am.

2. Somehow...
I think part of that's gotta be the upbringing. Be rightly proud, you've done well, and so have they.

3. I have great hopes for our next generation...
I truly believe they will be our "Greatest Generation" for we have given them so much dirt to deal with...and your children have a place among them. What wonderful babies! :hi:
