Okay, so the lesson for yesterday was, things might not turn out exactly as you planned, but make the best of it! Per our family tradition, Donte, Nerissa, and I headed out to D.C. last night to make food for the homeless along with my good friend, Kendria. We were late (thanks, Donte), so we got there an hour and a half after the event started, but we weren't too bummed because it was supposed to last an hour longer.
To our dismay, they were packing up when we arrived.
Nerissa's eyes welled up with tears, and I got that guilty parent feeling, but I consoled her and told her that sometimes things don't work out, and we have to make the best of it. So we resolved to find another volunteer activity soon, and dined on some Mexican food! :)
There are lessons in everything, right?!?!
Have a great Thanksgiving!
