    I Know It's Not Just Me...

    Everyone still hanging in there?! Between crazy weather and gobs of school and end of the year events, spring has been buzzing with activity. But the busier we get the more challenging life can be. Spring is a beautiful time of year but having too much to do can get ugly and that can make us ugly, so hang in there! Summer is almost here! Aside from all the to-dos, we had a wonderful time spreading some spring themed kindness in Arkansas over Easter. It’s a tradition of ou

    What's in a Word?

    Can you believe that the first month of 2019 is already behind us? How DOES that happen?! Wow! One of the "in" things to do as 2018 came to a close was to choose a word for the upcoming year. We didn't do that. We didn't have to. Why? Because we found that there is one word that keeps choosing us! A word that is everywhere we look even when we're not really looking. A word that, above all, keeps us going. A word that has the potential to make a difference in this wor

    #6 What About the Other 364?

    Be sure to read the first blog in our Holiday Series to get the most of out of the Series! After having such wonderful experiences with random acts of kindness during the holidays I knew we couldn’t stop after Christmas. I started asking myself why we wait until Christmas to be so thoughtful and giving. We really shouldn’t have to have a reason. Isn’t this just the way we should live? There are 364 other days in the year and opportunities for kindness abound if you just o

    #5 Sow Kind!

    Be sure to read the first post in Our KIND of Christmas to get the most of out of the Series! Read and Seed The second year of Operation Good Deed Doer we decided to leave gift cards in children’s books. I called this Mission Read and Seed because we loved the idea that it could encourage reading while also planting a seed of kindness. So...we seriously just left gift cards in books? Yep. Now, every year on Christmas Eve, with Drew in his Santa suit and his entourage decke

    #4 Don’t Go Nuts, Give Nuts!

    Be sure to read the first post in Our KIND of Christmas to get the most of out of our Holiday Blog Series!! One day after school, Drew couldn’t wait to show me what he had in his pockets. I prepared myself for anything as he unveiled that his pockets were full of…pecans. He’d gathered pecans from the ground under my mom’s pecan tree. He was so excited as he told me, “I got these to share with my family.” He beamed with pride as he laid them out and showed me each one. Tho

    #3 When Angels Sing

    Our KIND of Christmas Holiday Blog Series #3 To get the most out of our series, start with #1! The letter below was sent to a sweet lady we do not know who was working the gift store at Carlsbad Caverns. I found her name printed on the receipt along with the park address. Hello, Miss Sherrill! The week of Thanksgiving our family took a trip from Texas to visit and meet up with framily in New Mexico. On our way home, we REALLY wanted to take a quick peek at the Caverns, but w

    #1 Do You Give Presents or Gifts?

    Our KIND of Christmas, Holiday Blog Series #1 You probably never thought about the difference between the two. I never thought too much about it until things started to change. Our only, Drew, turned five. I remember his first day of Kindergarten like it was yesterday. It was that same day in August he came home with questions. He was confused because he’d been treated poorly by some kids at school. Then one day I got a call that he’d been punched in the face standing u
