Enthusiastic shopping

Each year at church we sponsor a project where we fill shoe boxes with gifts for children in tough circumstances around the world.  Since two of my granddaughters didn't have school today and they were spending the day with me, I decided to let them help me shop for items to fill the two boxes I decided to fill.  I was delighted to discover that they are every bit as excited to shop for someone else as for themselves, and they were organized.  We put two shopping baskets in the cart, one for a boy's gifts and one for a girl's.  We had a delightful time selecting small toys, school supplies and other fun things. The only problem is I realized, as I started packing things into boxes, that I have enough here for four boxes.  Lucky for me there are more boxes at church.  What a good problem to have.
