83/365 bragging on my daughter

Today she helped at the Eastview food pantry.  Eastview moved their food pantry into a bigger better space, still within the church.  Gabrielle and I went over to help organize and put things away.  Gabrielle was the only child.  When we first got their the volunteers who don't know her looked at her like oh no she's going to be in the way.  They quickly found out what an asset she is.  People were asking for her help.  She sorted clothes, went through bags to check for holes, organized soup, and so much more.  I heard lots of people saying how wonderful a help she is.  She loves our food pantry.  We use to just bring food to the food drive days.  Then she said "can't we do more?" So we started helping sort the food donations on food drive days.  Still she wanted to do more.  She was too young to work the food pantry so I signed up.  She shops with me for food pantry items.  She cares about the pantry.  It also helps her to see how blessed she is because she has food.  It was a wonderful afternoon watching my daughter work for the Lord.
