29-Day Giving Challenge

so today was day 1 of my challenge, and i already received a printer from my brother! i had already planned on spending the day with my mom and my niece, we babysit her every wednesday after school while my sister-in-law is in school and my brother is at work. but while i was here my mom asked if he planned on using a printer that she gave him a few months ago and he said he wasn't, so now i have a printer! just the other day i was wishing that i had one...

i'm also having trouble doing just one! i've already given at least five things today, through tips at a cafe, opening the door for people, walking my brother's dog, and giving money to the salvation army (via the people posted up outside grocery stores). i have to hold myself back! or not, i guess it will make up for times i might forget to intentionally help people.

i also received many emails from friends whom i hadn't heard from in a long time, warming my heart. i also got an email from my mom that hit home :) i'm going through a really super rough patch right now so any support and love i receive is very much welcomed. i've felt very alone so all these emails at once were like a blanket of love.

i can't wait to keep going and keep giving!
