Meredith’s trip to Guatemala is just a few weeks away. Today at church the team got together to pack the shoes they are giving away into 22 big duffel bags. The shoes came packed in boxes directly from the factory so we needed to take the paper out of them and tie the laces together before stuffing them with socks and packing them away.
Nathan’s job was to take the paper out of the shoes and put them into the bag. He was into it for a while, but eventually decided he liked playing with Trenton better. He did understand the concept, though, and talked about giving shoes to the “big kids” who didn’t have any (the shoes we were packing were bigger than his).
He also is understanding the concept that Mommy and Daddy are going places to tell people about Jesus. He says when he grows up and is a Daddy he will tell people about Jesus too. I am trying to give him opportunities to do that even as a 4 year old.
