30 Days of Thanksgiving

I found this also at Without Fear's blog and she came by it via Two Little Vikings blog. I was completely excited about what a great idea it is. So, I too am participating. I already have many names swirling through my mind as I think through it.





Here's Beth's of Two Little Vikings take on the background of the 30 Days of Thanksgiving:





Early last October, I made a list of 30 people in my life that I felt needed to know that my world is a little better because they are in it. I thought a list like that would be hard to create...and, actually, it was not. I also made a little card in MS Publisher using Kari's button graphic explaining what I was doing and why. Then, starting October 24th, every day for thirty days I "snail mailed" or emailed someone on that list. My online buddies. My pastors. My parents. My in-laws. The folks at my local Walgreen's pharmacy who put up with my wacky-weird questions when one of the Vikings is sick. The Vikings' pediatrician. My favorite lunch spot's staff. My mail carrier and newspaper delivery person. My favorite cashier at the grocery store whose line I always wait in no matter how long because she's so nice to the Vikings.Who around you do you appreciate? Who makes a tough day a little easier to get through? Who silently takes care of small (or big) tasks around you? Who makes you smile and thankful they are part of your life? Wouldn't it be nice if they knew how you felt?





Leave a comment here if you'd like to participate. And, consider posting at your bloggy home about what you think you might do and/or who you might honor starting next Wednesday. Then, perhaps do a follow-up post after your Thanksgiving food coma subsides and tell the bloggy world how it went. And, may the glory be His alone.

I love this. I love how the Lord is teaching me to treasure and hold dear everything I have been given and the people that surround me that I am so entirely grateful for. I can hardly wait to get started on this. Let me know too if you plan on participating!!
