Today for the giving challenge I voted and I feel that is giving to my country. I decided to give the people helping at the polling place some candy I got yesterday. The funny thing was, I was nervous about giving something to strangers. I thought they might think I was weird, since people don't do things like that very often. After they gave me my ballet I pulled the candy out of my purse and told them it was for them and thanked them for giving their time. They were surprised that someone would thank them much less give them something! I learned a lot today, I don't care if people think I'm weird I want to show them that there are still giving and caring people out there and I am one of them!
When I was doing preschool with the little ones today we talked about how this month we are going to focus on giving. Even little children can give, they can give up a toy they are playing with to a friend, they can give a time of picking up without being asked, and so on. At that age they love to help grown-ups in their life, most of the time! ;-)
Nathan and I have talked about ways to give during our school time also. He is helping a fellow scout this weekend with his eagle scout project as part of this giving for this month.
Only had one cup of spilled milk to clean up today!
