New Thanksgiving Day Tradition

We wanted to start showing Penny what the true spirit of Thanksgiving is by sharing our good fortune with others. So we decided that each year, on Thanksgiving, we will sponsor a child through Save the Children.

We wanted Penny to help pick our child so I printed out 10 photos of boys in the U.S. (we decided to go domestic this year, and thought a boy would be nice) and had her pick out which one she liked the best.

It turned out to not be very conclusive so Gabe and I picked Jakevious, an 8 year old boy, because, well, his name is just awesome!

We hope this continued tradition will help Penny (as well as Gabe and I) remember to be grateful for all we have and to share with someone who might not be as fortunate as we.
