I know it was a bad hurricane. I know a lot of people messed up really bad, so it was a lot worse than it had to be. It's good so many people pitched in to help.

It's just that because this blog is what it is, I have to remind everyone that for kids in the Global South, every day of their lives is worse. Before posting this I asked the net to tell me how many kids die of hunger every day. Six different agencies that monitor these things said 24,000. I know it's too hard to think about but I do wish just once when I mention this, instead of the blank stares I get somebody would pull out a checkbook. Raising money for food relief is not a solution. But until the world finds a solution, we really need to keep sending food.  ¶ 5:12 PM
