00:00Hey moms, I know that it is hard to fulfill corporal works of mercy when you have children.
00:08If you have been wondering about this recently or thinking that it's something you would
00:12like to get involved in or even have your children involved in, I have an idea.
00:17Find your local nursing home and bring your children to visit the elderly.
00:21We are just down the road from a nursing home run by the Little Sisters of the Poor.
00:24I bring my son to visit there every now and then.
00:27It seems like it's such a simple thing, but really it's super impactful for all parties.
00:32A lot of the elderly might not have people who are regularly coming to visit them, let
00:36alone small children.
00:38It's such a delight for me to see how my son, you know, lights up their day.
00:43And it's really good for him to get exposure to other people.
00:46So if this is something that you think might be attainable for you and your children, give
00:50it a go.
00:51Let us know how it goes.
