to drop stuff off at Goodwill?
I have been carrying around several small bags of toys and clothes for weeks. Toys that Sophie and Sam no longer play with and clothes that have not fit them in ages.
This weekend I cleaned out my closest and had a trash bag full of clothes and shoes that I could not even tell you when they were worn last.
So today as I finally went to the Goodwill drop off and was handing the bags over to the smiling man I felt like I was doing something wrong!
Why is that?
It makes no sense.
I want to clean out this house - rid our lives of clutter both literally and figuratively.
Shouldn't it feel great to unload the back of my car?
Shouldn't I feel like I am helping others by donating our stuff?
Oh well it is done now!
Maybe I just need to do it more often so I will get used to it!
I need help!
In other helping news...
Sophie participates in a mission group for kids at our church.
I am excited that she gets to do this. They meet every other Sunday - one Sunday is a meeting to make things to give and the other Sunday is a field trip relating to whatever project they have been working on.
Yesterday we went to an animal shelter and dropped off donations and learned a little bit about what the shelter does. After that the kids and adults got to play with the kitties!!!
I wanted so badly to bring them home and sweet little Sophie cried when we had to leave.
I definitely think that girl is going to work with animals.
