Finished Round One - Will now post random acts of giving (not keeping track of the days)

Gift of listening.Today after water therapy I stayed and talked to another lady who was exercising in the pool. As we talked, I realized she needed to vent. She has a recent diagnosis of primary progressive MS. As tempting as it was to chime in with my own experience, I limited my input and consciously listened to her. I also put together an email encouraging my bike team, Team Marj @ Large, as we're team-wide practicing some conscious giving in honor of our partnership with 29 Gifts this…See More

Day 26, Day 27 & Day 28 (Family Time, Back to School, and never too old for story time - well maybe)

Day 26 (Saturday)My youngest son went to see my niece in Alice in Wonderland. She was the youngest little actress and I was very proud of her showering her with praises. I wish I had thought to bring her flowers. :-((  Later my son went to a birthday party and I helped him get a gift together for the party. While at the party, my older son and I spent hours shopping for school supplies and stopped for a nice treat at a Chinese restaurant. I enjoyed the time with my older son. Day 27…See More
