for our Thanks Giving dinner, the main course was Turkey soup of which I actually found a piece of chicken & two nodles. Our desert was Orange collored jello or maby pudding it was.
Everyone was smiling & not many went away hungry.
Well this is not true of course but it does make one think of the homeless who are not all no accounts. Some haven't the mental capacity to lead sucessful lives.
We are soon to get a new homeless shelter, man that will be great, rather than send our money to other towns we will be able to watch our own succeed.
Best wishes to the Kinzli's forum & thank God we live in a caring country in which we've all been greatly blessed.
God bless our Soldiers, & God bless America.......jim

Hey j......immy! Funny you should mention the Soup Kitchen. My wife recently took our kids to a Soup Kitchen to help volunteer. We wanted to expose them to all facets of life and that not all are as fortunate as others. I think it was a great experience for both kids and Kaira (our 7 year old) seemed to really enjoy helping others. Ronnie (5 year old) thought the rubber gloves were pretty cool and he got to sweep for 1/2 an hour so he was jazzed too!! You can stop by our place at anytime, now that we have experienced volunteers who can serve you!! HH Ron (CA)

Great parenting there Ron. You have a big heart, you didn't have to teach the children that for they inherited that from you, but the lessons of life your teaching is a valuable attribute thats only learned by example.
Say hello to the beautiful family for me, hope to meet with you again before too long. Your friend.........jim
