What a great article. I had to read aloud to my wife of your sons experience of learning how much food costs. There are so many things we can teach our kids, your article pretty much pointed out your experience of your son learning them. Thank you for the reminder and bringing out the joy in rasing my own children with values that matter.

What a great son! I learned a long time ago how much I’ve had. I had to volunteer with my mom growing up at a woman’s shelter where she would volunteer with abused women. I used to look at them and compare their lives to mine and my mom’s. Yes she was a single parent but we had a house, she had a stable job, we had medical, vision, dental insurance, new clothes, and good food.

My mom did that to teach me how much I had. Today I volunteer once a month at a food bank to take in food for those less fortunate than me and at a woman’s shelter because I think of my mom and I together alone.

This weekend I recall why I appreciate what I had.
