A great book to help you throughout the entire year: Simple Acts: A Busy Families Guide to Giving Back
We have started a December GIVING calendar, to intentionally set their hearts and minds on giving. Do we do what is listed on the calendar every day? HECK NO, but we get as many as we can in. We try (keyword: try) to make sure our entire family is living December especially on behalf of others instead of ourselves. The Christmas presents are awesome, but it means so much more when we have gratitude for what we get. A little perspective change when we see others’ needs goes a long way. Try it with us this year. Add your own and get the kids involved – they have the best ideas!
Grab your calendar HERE and we will send it straight to your inbox!
Happy holidays from our family to yours!
