I saw this list on Pinterest and thought it would be nice to take on the challenge. 25 acts of kindness before Christmas. Most of them are very easy and things I do all the time anyway...do we really need to be told to hold the door? Unfortunately yes, so let's see if this will spread.
I will post my progress on a weekly basis and would love for you to join me!
If I learn how to to a bloghop I will link us all up!
1. Work at a soup kitchen
2. Deliver gifts or goodies to your neighbours
3. Pay for the person in line behind you in the coffee shop
4. Host or participate in a food drive
5. Work at the food bank for a day
6. Tip your mail carrier and delivery person
7. Donate used books and magazines to a library or doctor's office

A very special idea! I like it. I want to hear all about your progress. I could probably knock a few off the list by the 25th, but all 25 would be a stretch. I'll see how many I can do.
Tres sweet idea SP! I have my "Bucket List" going on...not as thoughtful as yours though. I have jotted down some of the things on your list that I need to do...maybe with Mama next week!
Hey sweetie! This is a great list - not sure I can get to all 25, but I'll sure try! :-) XOXO
