This fall in October, Ralph and Chantel (4 yrs. old at the time), and I walked about 6 miles together in the town of Souderton. It is called the CROP walk; Chantel walked it with us and didn't really give us trouble to complete it. Even though we passed several playgrounds. It took us about 2 hours and 40 min. It was a great family bonding experience as well as a teachable moment for Chantel to understand the importance of doing things for others. As we walked, we asked her why she was walking. She told us it was for people who needed food. She really got it. Although she wanted to meet the people at the walk and she also wondered why people didn't stop at the crop sign. :-)Sunday, February 10, 2008
