children undergoing chemotherapy and radiation lose their hair. not a news flash. they feel embarrassed. they get cold when they are going to sleep. they are miserable with their appearance. they are susceptible to sunburn. as if they needed more heartache.
a great project to do with your kids (and their friends) is to decorate hats and send them to these deeply deserving little heroes.
the lesson: helping others who need support - even if we don't know them (more "do onto others" stuff).
***added bonus: spending an afternoon crafting with your beautiful and healthy children!
