Community Service Day-Dec. 25th
We took the kids to the DC JCC's annual day of service on the 25th, so that they could "give back."
They donated some clothes and then we went to a retirement home to bring some "holiday cheer" to the residents.
Plus, they got to touch their first Xmas tree :-)
I was glad that we had a chance to give them some hands-on experience in community service.
We explained why we were donating clothes, why going to a retirement home was a nice thing to do, and how their presence could bring a smile to someone's face.
