We have taken the kindness wins challenge and almost every day, God has given our family one opportunity or another to serve 'outside of our box'. Here are some of the ways God has shown up in our life and others...
- picked up extra trash in a public bathroom (gross!!!) and cleaned up so that it would be better off for everyone who came in next. Used the opportunity to teach the girls how we take care of everything God provides for us.
- picked up all of extra clothes left in a dressing room, hung them up and handed the clothes to the lady working in that department (I thought she was going to faint from shock)
- helped the girls make homemade treats and homemade 'we are thankful for you' cards for their teachers
- cooked dinner for a friend who just lost her mother. spent the evening helping the family laugh. hugged long.
- unexpectedly canceled all of our plans to take in a child for the afternoon so a sleep deprived mommy could nap
- stopped what I was doing to 'just sit on the couch' and snuggle my children. told them how I was proud of them.
- made homemade goodies for neighbor's b-day and dropped them off in her mailbox
- made phone calls to tell friends what I specifically have appreciated about them lately
