Not Just Today

Day 2: Today, I {as every day} have lots to be thankful for but I what stood out was charity and all the work and dedication that goes into a charity by those that believe in it! I believe in giving to those less fortunate but I really enjoy giving to small charities or those that I have a close connection with. I like knowing that my money and/or time is going for good and that I can speak from my heart about the work of the organization.

Tonight I supported "Give Hope, Fight Poverty" but have supported many different organizations and charities along the way. Today I had fun but I know my monetary donation will make a difference in the days to come and maybe no matter how small it is always appreciated. Making donations makes me feel good and I know I am doing good for others!

It isn't just about today but about the difference I {AND YOU} can make for a lifetime for someone else <3

The Little Things

I am back! I am going to get back into the swing of things by sharing my '30 Days of Thanks' with you along with that will come the MANY life updates that have happened since my last post.

Day 1: I am thankful for my Little People sets and the creative people at Fisher Price! I have sets that can be enjoyed by all, year round at my place, stop by and see which one is on display :) I am thankful that mom and dad still enjoy buying me "toys" at 27! I enjoy the diversity of cultures within the sets along with the multitude of careers, holidays or occasions that can be celebrated with these adorable toys. Some day when I have children I hope they are as excited as I am to change the sets with the season/holiday! These are more than just a "toy" for me but something little in my life that brings a smile to my face.

It always doesn't have to be big, extravagant or one-of-a-kind to be special to me. I appreciate the little things from day to day! Today, it is those 'little things' {setting up a new Little People set} that remind me I have lots to be thankful for!
