Day 4

Today I am thankful for food.

We are so used to "picking something up" at the store.

Josh wanted to have some french bread to go with our spaghetti tonight and as I went to pick him and it up I heard a piece on NPR about the food crisis in East Africa.  Something like 380 thousand people in refugee camps because of drought and a level 4 food crisis.  They won't call it famine because of political reasons which I guess I get, but it seems like if people are dying and fleeing their country cause of lack of food what else can we call that?

I know that because I have an abundance here I am often complacent, but today I am mindful of my gifts and that I can feed my children.
