Max and I did our first charity event today, a walkathon to support people living with an acquired brain injury. He rode most of the way in his stroller, but he was on the scene and a part of the action. This is the first of hopefully many volunteer and charitable activities that we’ll share. I want him to have enough familiarity with helping other people that spending time volunteering becomes a normal part of the way he sees the world. And, in the act of encouraging him, I’ll have to get off of my duff and chip in myself. I talk a big game about community involvement and generosity of spirit, so its time to back it up with action. Watch out,people in need-I’m getting into your business!
