Well, if you go to this website www.fairlyhappy.com/2010/03/pay-it-forward.html there is a chance to win some prizes by posting a story of some act of kindness (no matter how small) someone did for you! So here are a couple of mine that really stand out.
When I was pregnant with Nathan, I was going to school, working as a library sub, and trying to keep it all together (pregnancy hormones will kill you). The spare room in our house was a disaster.. not just a mess but disaster as in you can't walk in disaster. I had no time to clean it and it was really upsetting me. I was heading off to work one morning in tears because of my "messy" house and just didn't know what to do. When I got home that afternoon, my sweet husband Michael, asked me where some colored pens were for a school project he was working on. They were in the awful mess of a room. I went to go find them for him and when I opened the door I just about fell over. Micheal had spent the whole afternoon cleaning the room for me!!! It was organized and spotless!! After, looking in there I began to notice that my whole house had been cleaned for me!!! It may seem like a little thing but to me that was huge!!!
This has made me start thinking about all the little things people do for me each day.. especially my Heavenly Father who blesses me with tender mercies each day. I just need to pay more attention sometimes!! So this week I am going to make it a goal to think of one nice thing someone has done for me and post it! Hopefully I will think of soo many I'll have to edit it down:)
Isn't life great? (I know I need that reminder:)
