It's 3am in the morning, and I can not get back to sleep.

At 2 o'clock the alarm had to be set to give my baby an antibiotic. The sound of alarm shook me to the core. And now I am awake. This usually happens if I've gotten at least two hours of sleep.

After tossing and turning for nearly an hour, I decided to go downstairs and put on a pot of tea. I looked in the pantry and found exactly what I was searching for:

There are three tea bags left.

On the back of the box is a quote by Diane Loomans, author of The Laughing Classroom: Everyone's Guide to Teaching With Humor and Play from another one of her books, Full Esteem Ahead. Looman says:

World Vision is asking Americans to call on President Bush to Make Poverty History at the upcoming G-8 Summit beginning July 6th 2005.

World Vision is a Christian relief and development organization dedicated to helping children and their communities worldwide reach their full potential by tackling the causes of poverty.

Their assistance extends to all people, regardless of beliefs, gender, or ethnicity.

They believe that at the G8 Summit, President Bush has the opportunity to make an historic commitment to the worlds poor.

Rich Stearns, the President of World Vision, said:

We applaud the efforts of President Bush ... but so much more needs to be done, such as changing unjust trade policies.

Mr. Bush should earmark just 1 percent more of our nation's wealth for 'the least of these.'

As a nation, we can bring hope and healing to an entire generation of children.

The non-profit organization encourages Americans to ask President Bush to:

1) allocate just one percent more of the U.S. budget for HIV/AIDS and basic needs like health, education, clean water and food,

2) cancel debt and reform trade rules to help alleviate the burden on people in the world's poorest countries.
