Random Acts Recap #3


I'm still having a BALL doing small acts around the city and really can't explain how good it feels to knock items off my list. I would just urge you to try something small yourself to see what I mean!

Here's what I did within the past few days...

1. Donated some books to our pediatrician's office.
2. Donated gifts to grow points to the 4 charities Pampers supports.
3. Left a $5 target gift card in a shopping basket.
4. Left a $5 bill in an envelope taped to a gas pump.
5. Sent our soldiers a box of needed toiletry items.
6. Sent an expecting mother a surprise Babies R Us registry gift from 'anonymous'.
7. Surprised a blogging friend with a visa gift card.
8. Donated a basket of snacks to the maternity wing nurses where Drew was born.
9. Made and took a couple dozen cookies to a local retirement home.


I only have few items left on the list and can't wait to complete them all!

And just like I always ask...
Have YOU done any random acts this week? 
If so, leave a comment with what you did!

    This is seriously so special. I hope you are including Drew in your kind acts! I'm a firm believer in the idea that goodness grows, so those recipients will surely do something good for someone else. :)

    Hi Sarah
    Thank you for visiting me, I am so happy you found me and I in turn you. This post is amazing! Funny how we think by giving to others we're helping and we are... but in fact the ones who give get the greatest gifts. What a wonderful idea and your list is so creative. Very inspiring. I am looking forward to getting to you know and visiting your space often.

    Have a great day!
    Jen

    Your dad did one just the other day....we were in the check-out lane, at a knickknack store closeout sale, behind a 90-yr-old gentleman who had driven himself to the sale and just discovered that he'd left his wallet at home(i know...scary). Anyway, Dad told the clerk to just add the items to our bill. The man was flabbergasted and thanked Dad profusely.
