Another Neighborhood House Fire = Good Deed

Thursday another neighborhood house went down in flames, just down the same street that a house about 2 years ago went down in fire. House was totally engulfed before the firemen got to it. Thankfully none was home at the time and the family dog was saved. We always pass by the house on our bike rides....see the kids and parents out there but never knew who the family was...until the next day. It was a classmate of mine. So without a second thought, I asked a friend of hers what sizes the kids were and what sizes of clothes they needed, including shoes. I went searching to see what I could find in the boxes and bags that were left over from the garage sale last weekend....and sent it off. Even with the money issues we have, some people don't have anything...just the clothes they had on their backs that day. And it feels great thinking I helped a family in need. Id do it again....Only if more would do the same.
