I was babysitting a two year old today, and she kept on pointing to the tub and muttering something incomprehensible.  She kept on repeating it, and all I could understand was “agua” (she doesn’t know the word water, she knows it as agua).

Her parents came home, and she said it again.  When I asked if they understood, they laughed and said, “she’s saying ‘Freddy will get you in the water’.  Nightmare On Elm Street is her favorite movie”.

2 years ago today, I started donating to Share Our Strength.  I have donated $10 a month to stop childhood hunger in America.  Since then, I have never taken for granted the fact that there is always food in my house.
