A Blessing We Will Go......

So this week has been amazing. We started on Wednesday with our first Random Act of Loving Kindness. We decided to bless the people who provide Kimberly's daddy with his paycheck. They have blessed us for so many years and we like to bless them in return every now and then. We normally bake something yummy, however I know that JJ is watching her sugars and KD is a single guy (and we all know how well they eat) so we took them a big bowl of fruit. Kimberly was so excited and JJ kept asking us why? Was it something our Sunday School kids were doing? We told her no that we were just doing nice things for people and she was first on our list.

Then Day 2 we decided to take cocoa to the teachers who were on recess duty. We got this wonderful idea from my friend Lisa. She and her girls did the same thing before Christmas for their school and what a great idea it was. We chose the morning recess and it was a perfectly cold day for cocoa as well. A warm treat was much appreciated by all.

On Day 3 we set our sights on the customers at our grocery store. I picked up 3 little heart shaped boxes of chocolates and we taped our little cards to each of them. Then we chose 3 cars that were sitting in the parking lot and placed them on their windshields. Then we parked back in the corner where we could sit and watch. Kim wanted to see the people get their gift. The first 2 almost didn't see them. They actually got in their cars and started to drive away and then had to stop and get out and grab their treat. The 3rd on though spotted it right away. He stopped and picked up the card and then looked our way. He said "thank you" and Kim opened the door of the car and told him that he was very welcome and Happy Valentine's day. He then asked "are you sure you got the right car?" I said "yes we are positive". It was nice to see the smile on his face. I thought it was great that we live in such a small town yet of the cars Kim chose we didn't know any of the people.

Day 4 we chose to bless the other members of worship team at church with dinner. Kim actually chose to stay home and not join me but it was still great time. We have worship practice and a time of Creative Worship on the 1st Saturday of the month so I invited the team to come an hour early for dinner. We had spaghetti, salad and garlic bread. The evening was filled with great fellowship, lots of laughs and loads of fun.

I can't wait to see what the next 10 days have in store for us.
