"We begin our day with breakfast. A proper, sit-down meal. The first thing I teach the little ones is to sit down and enjoy their food. The next thing I teach them is to take their time, because no one is going to steal their food from them. It makes me wonder – at home – in the shelter – do the bigger kids take food away from the smaller children?" – Luella Smith, foster grandmother since 2004.
