Our Community Service Project

We have decided as a family that we would take on a Community Service Project. We want to teach B the value of giving to others and helping others. We know that it builds character and if he learns it early on he is most likely to do it on his own later on in life.

We have decided that once a month we would make Cookies for Cops or Fudge Brownies for Firefighters. This month it was the brownies.

So yesterday I made two batches of brownies and we took them to the firefighters on the corner of Karl and Morse Road. We felt bad since they couldn't have the day off and we did. So that was their treat. We had B bring them into the room where there were four firefighters sitting watching TV. He brought them up to the one firefighter and they were all touched. After that, they took us on a tour of the fire trucks and B got to climb up into the back of the one fire truck. He really enjoyed that.

They informed us that they were having a cookout later that day and the brownies were now their dessert. We were happy that we could contribute.

Next month, need to take care of the Police Officers. It will be fun to see their reaction too!!
