Love 'em.<BR/><BR/>I'm overanalyzing the volunteering, big time. I have committed to collecting on my street for the Kidney Foundation in February, but that's a one-stop deal. I know there is a huge need for volunteers to shuttle the elderly to their appointments, but I would have to bring the toddler (who, incidentally, is one day older than your little one). I don't think it's fair to ask her to wait at other people's appointments, at the tender age of two. So now I'm thinking food bank.<BR/><BR/>Wow! That was a wordy comment.

Good for you for committing to something so noble...at the very least, volunteering always makes the volunteer feel amazing, so it is never really a selfless act anyways(Joey's challenge to Phoebe comes to mind).

Our Children's Hospital, because we've so benefited from it and I want to give back. BUT, I can't keep my kids healthy long enough to go in and train, I don't know how in the world I can make a decent time commitment. Sad, isn't it?
