29 days of giving

My plan is to update this post through the month to total 29 days of giving gifts. Inspired by the book 29 Days of Giving, I was challenged to follow through with this task. I am trying to go beyond my usual giving. I will probably fall back on some of my standards. I am also struggling to focus on what people need instead of what can I give, moving the attention from myself to others. My main focus is to work toward being able to give forgiveness, baby steps at a time. 1.A kiss to my mom 2.Hot Pockets for Co worker 3.Chai Tea for Co worker 4.a donation to honor a passed friend, plus a hug to a crying teacher I don't really know 5.clean closet floor for hubby 6.gave hubby hot cup of coffee before 8 am class 7. made dinner so it would ready when hubby got home from his 14 hr day 8.a box of tissues to the babysitter 9.read an extra story to the boys 10 . told a friend I missed him 11.
