I think that John Turner says the word "mine" about 2,687 times a day! HAHA!! I know that self-centered and selfish behavior are typical for a two year old. I know in time it will get better.
Well, We decided to take John Turner on a little outing to learn a lesson on giving to others who need help this Christmas. We headed to the mall and adopted an "angel" off of the Salvation Army's Angel Tree.
We adopted a little boy that is two years old just like John Turner. The sweet baby wanted a Big Wheel and a learning toy. He also needed clothes, pajamas and shoes. We were able to complete his entire Christmas list!
We then headed back to the mall to drop off the gifts. John Turner enjoyed the whole process. He very generously gave the gifts to the lady at the drop off location!
We plan on making this a tradition for our family each year at Christmas. John Turner has so much and we want him to always know that other children are not as fortunate as him. We want him to have a heart for giving to others.
I had to use my phone for pics because that is all I had with me. Sorry for the bad quality!
