{10 Days Of Open Hearted Thanksgiving}

Today is 10 Days before Thanksgiving.

This year I am choosing to celebrate Thanksgiving in a different kind of way.

I have so much in my life that I am thankful for, and so I am choosing to celebrate the art of Giving Thanks, by passing on kindness that has been done for me.

This is an intentional act of practice: I am intending to move the ways that I am Thankful through my life and out into the world, in ways that can be experienced by others....  I feel so grateful for the many ways that I have been blessed in my life lately- kindness shown by my neighbors, gratitude for the health and well being of my father, I could go on and on...

In order to share this, I am going to make 10 acts of kindness in the 10 days before Thanksgiving. The first will be bringing coffee and a treat to the kiddo's teachers this afternoon at school pickup.

What will be next? I am looking forward to including the kids, and getting their input for some acts of kindness!

Here are the jpegs of the card that goes with the random acts of kindness. (I made some up, to kind of explain it, in case any of my kindness acts might be misinterpreted!)

 Feel free to use! I printed them out as wallet-sized photos to cut up. (One is singular, and I added one that is plural, for those working with their children. Thanks for pointing that out Tammy!)
