Sharing with Africa

Christian was eating breakfast and it suddenly struck him to ask

"Mama, why the poor children of Africa don't have bread and milk?"

I told him they don't have money to buy bread and milk.. and he asked why again.. I explained that their parents do not have jobs so they can't earn money to buy food.. he thought for a while and then said -

"Mama, I will give them water! I will bring them to my house."

I was pleased to hear that and praised him. "That's great.. what about bread? Will you share bread?"

"Yes! I will give them bread.. that's for later! Then they won't be hungry anymore.. Then I will bring them to school.. and they will cry.. because they don't like school, then I'll bring them home. Erm. mama, I don't know how to go to Africa."

I smiled and told him maybe we'll go when he's bigger. He started asking where Africa was and whether it was next to Godma and Godpa's house (they live in Perth).
