1) Giving a car-full of gently used toys from our basement, which our children no longer play with, to our child care center and church nursery. I love sharing things with others. Especially when it helps clean out some of cupboards and toy boxes. (Blessing #404)
2) Delivering Mountain Dew Throwbacks and Twizzlers to my hubby-coach and his fellow-coaches before they headed to their first soccer game of the season. (#405)
3) A plate of St. Patrick's Day Cookies shared with our neighbors. (#406)
