Fill It Up

This is the former tomato box that will be used to collect our fabric scraps and old clothing. It has been placed in the teacher's classroom, poised and waiting. The goal is to fill it up.

We'll fill it up with woven cotton and good intentions. And new ideas, teamwork, kindness and exploration.

(But, please, no synthetics.)

And someday soon, it's my hope that our children will be filled with a sense of purpose and contentment by simple, little projects with goals bigger than themselves.

That will be a very good day.
