As I sit here Cal is flicking through the Christian aid news magazine that has just come through the door. I can’t help but smile as he sings his own made-up song thanking God for the fact we live in Northern Ireland.
He’s looking at the photographs devastated at the thought of not having lots of clothes or food, and having to live in a hut. He is realising there are other children in the world who don’t have what he has. The idea of having rice every day for his stable diet makes him very thankful for what he has! I just hope I can continue to instill in him thankfulness as well as for myself.
