January 2021 - Positive Vibes
“How do we change the world? One random act of kindness at at time “ -Morgan Freemen.
After the year that we have all had, we wanted to start 2021 off with some positive vibes!
For the month of January we did 31 random acts of kindness ❤️. We paid for coffee, brought new neighbors a welcome gift, mailed letters to friends, sent a friend a book, left change in the vending machine, sent cookies and letters to fireman, and so much more.
Spending every day thinking of a new way to show kindness sparked something inside my 3 girls. They felt what they were doing made a difference. They saw the smiles that were left on faces, they felt that joy of surprising strangers. They began to really understand that we have the power to make other happy, to make others feel loved. It was a powerful lesson and one that I believe will follow them the rest of their lives.
Most of the acts took mere minutes to do but some might have a lasting impression. I encourage you all to take time with your children and practice kindness. Who knows they might be the ones to truly change the world!
We loved starting the new year off like this and might have started a new tradition. Here are a few of our favorite pictures from the month.
