A Lesson in Charity

Pepper wants to go in the pool. Right now! “Can we go in the pool? PLEASE!!!”
I tell her we have to drop off some diapers and formula to a new mom who needs help.
“Why can’t someone else do it?” She says. She REALLY wants to go in the pool!
“What if no one does it?”
She looks scared, eyes wide.
“OK! Then go right now!”
