Giving back Teaching kids to give back Thanksgiving

"Thanks" & "Giving"

November 22, 2012

Words)

I lead a blessed life. I married the love of my life and I have two beautiful, healthy children (boy & girl!). But before I had this blessedness I went through trials and it took me a while to get my stuff together. Going through these trials made me so thankful for the people and things in my life.

Being a mom is much harder than I ever expected and every day there are, well?... difficulties. But every night, before I go to bed, I look in on my nuggets. I thank God for them, pray over them and pray for others who want to be parents – more than anything.

It’s also want to teach my kids to be thankful and give back. Each year we challenge our nuggets to think of others (which is a hard task) by creating a Christmas shoe box for children who wouldn’t normally get any Christmas gifts. There are so many ways to be thankful and give. I encourage everyone to give back and teach your kids to do the same.

Our Thanksgiving table. Jack and Ella helped make our crafty napkin holders.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I hope you have a wonderful day filled with laughter and love!

simply yours,

XO - Lulu
