I smiled back, took the _____ and walked into the store. I really wanted to help, but wasn’t sure if I could this time.
I walked through the store, picking up vegetables, soup, spaghetti, bread, milk, cereal, macaroni, bananas, and a dozen other things. I slowly _____ each item off my list until I was done. When I looked down at my full cart I _____ again if I even had enough to pay for it all. Then, as I put my own list back into my pocket, I saw the food _____ list under it. I smiled and decided to trust my heart.
With the food bank in mind, I went over and _____ two of the biggest boxes of rice the store had and put them in my cart. It took _____ six dollars out of my wallet to pay for them, ______ my heart felt six times larger when I did. And when everything was _____, I had just enough to pay for it all.
