Well yesterday was the end of the Happy Day Project. The challenge for Friday was to honour our veterans or others in service (police, firemen, etc). I didn't get anything done for yesterday as it was a pretty hectic day but it was a good reminder to pray for those who put their lives on the line to protect us.
All in all it was a pretty interesting week and I was inspired to be more intentional about showing my appreciate for all the blessings in my life by sharing with others. Perhaps you wanted to participate but the money is tight and you couldn't buy giftcards or donate this time? Completely understandable, I know there's many people who are feeling the pinch this season. Yet there are other ways you can give. Bake cookies and bring them to your local firestation. Offer to babysit for a young couple with a small child, they might not have a break that often as babysitting can be expensive if you don't have family around!

We all know that physical acitivity is so important for kids. Yet with limited resources often schools cannote afford to have playgrounds installed. A friend of mine has been spreading the word about her little boy's school. They have no playground and the parents are working hard to raise money to build one. I went and registered and in a few minutes I voted for a cause that I care about, children's health!
