On my way to work yesterday, I heard this story on NPR. (Listen to the audio before you read the article).
It really made an impression on me.
I remember growing up wearing hand-made clothes, drinking powdered milk and eating hot-dog pizza all in the name of saving money. And I do not remember ever feeling disadvantaged.
It seems that children really don't need all that much in the way of material things in order to be happy. Food, shelter, clothing and a loving home.
A good thing to remember this time of year.
