welcome back to my 'actual' blog. i hope that you'll bookmark this page and visit it often—starting with every day between December 1st and the 25th, when i'll be writing about our Random Acts of Christmas Kindness project this year.
last December was the first time we spent our holiday season focused on acts of kindness, and—though it did get a little hectic at times the closer we got to Christmas Day—it was a truly awesome experience. Matthew especially enjoyed it, looked forward to our daily 'act' and even started recognizing other things we did (such as helping an elderly gentleman who was lost on the street) as acts of kindness.
last year we followed a calendar posted online by a friend. this year i decided to create our own, incorporating some acts that we loved doing last year as well as our own ideas and suggestions from friends and family. i'm sharing it here and now in case anyone would like to join us next month (which, incidentally, starts next Thursday!).
in the upcoming days, i will post links to various charities and organizations and other information that might be helpful in completing some of the acts of kindness. i'll also share memories from last year and ideas and notes for this year.
but for now: thanks so much for reading, and please come back soon!
