Back To School Help

Our school for the military kids is located on base and from time to time will have churches or businesses donate stuff, mostly to the school but sometimes for the military members as well.  This past week, one of the churches in the area, Saddleback, put together 600 backpacks filled with school supplies and handed them out to the incoming kids.  I have a real hard time accepting charity.  But I also know that now we have 2 kids who will be in school and money is tight so we took the opportunity and I am ever so grateful!!!  Kendall doesn't need much since she will only be in pre-school (plus she wont be attending the school that Cass goes to anyway) so we only picked up one backpack.  It is amazing!!  The backpack itself is super nice and will hold up for the whole year plus the supplies, it was really nice!!!!  Now all Cass wants to do is decorate the outside, which is not such a bad idea when there are 600 other backpacks that look the same!
