Jackson's 1st Trip to the Food Pantry




Our local food pantry asks for churches to take turns each month volunteer staffing the food lines. This month was our turn! Dave took Jackson with him this past Thursday morning to help begin to teach him about "serving". We explained why and what he would be doing and he was really excited to get to help out. His job was to put a can of vegetables in everyone's basket and then to run back and get more boxes of vegetables when he ran out.

When he was finished, they were breaking down the cardboard boxes and cleaning up. He was really excited to bring home 4 divided boxes that he was going to use to build homes for his stuffed animals. He designed one for Kinsey's baby doll and then we taped together the other 3 to make an "apartment complex". He spent probably 2 hours coloring and designing each compartment. It was a great way to keep him busy and to use his imagination!!!
