Lessons from a 4-year-old...

Why do we
bring Simon to the homeless shelter?
Based on these pictures,
you can see why we do...
The ladies at Isaiah's House LOVE him!
What kid wouldn't love moms and grandmas
blowing bubbles...playing cards...
and spending time with him?
We love seeing Simon SMILE when
he is with these wonderful ladies.


But do you know what we love even more?
Is that Simon can bring a SMILE to their faces...

He has NO idea what the real life of a homeless person is like...
he doesn't judge them...
he doesn't ignore...
he doesn't walk past...
He sits,
he plays,
he hugs,
he giggles,
he acts silly,
and makes these ladies feel treasured.
That's what I love about children...
they are innocent and unknowing of a lot that goes on in the world...
but they sure know how to show LOVE, don't they?
We can learn a lot from them...
Can't we?
