10 ideas for Summer Giving

  1. Take someone fresh flowers from your garden.
  2. Invite friends and neighbors over for a Barbecue.
  3. Go for a walk, and take time to visit people around your neighborhood.
  4. Offer to help someone with yard work.
  5. An ice cream social is a fun way to get to know new neighbors.
  6. Organize a fun play day for all the children in your neighborhood.
  7. Brighten someone's day by cleaning their windows.
  8. Take the time to play outside with children.
  9. Share what you are growing in your garden, (or if you are gardenless like me, buy extra stuff to share)
  10. Look for any special way to do some summer giving and then share your ideas with us!!!
Hope you are having 
a Happy Summer!

Giving Grandma

My sweet Mother-in-law comes to my house once a week and watches my kids for me. It is so nice to be able to get a break for one day to do what ever I want.

While she watches my four kids, she also gets all the laundry caught up. The kids love it when Grandma comes!!! They get to play with her all day and she always brings them a little treat!!!
