Make Someone Smile in Seconds!
|
Busy, busy, busy! I know that sometimes it seems like there’s never any time for stopping to smell the roses so to speak, but taking the time to do something nice for someone whether that’s your kids, spouse, family or girlfriends doesn’t really have to take much time at all. Our children may or may not believe us depending on how old they are, but we all know “tis’ better to give than to receive.” When we give, what we receive in return is heart-warming and just plain feels good. That “Thank You” or big smile just makes the day a better day overall. So, how can you find this time? Keep it simple! Kids --Put an “I love you” note next to their cereal bowl in the morning. --For older kids when studying gets tough, bring their favorite snack to their room and give them a pat on the back for their efforts. Hubby --Put a sticky note on the bathroom mirror that says something sexy, sweet or both. --The next time he leaves for a business trip, spray a cloth handkerchief with the perfume you wear most, put it in a Ziploc (so it doesn’t make his clothes smell like perfume!) and sneak it into his suitcase. Girlfriends --Cut a small bunch of flowers from the garden or blossoms from a tree in your yard and bring them to your friend. --Keep a tub of small gifts on hand such as bath stuff and candles so that you have a quick way of remembering someone’s birthday. Family --Email pic’s once a week of the kids --Stop off at the deli and pick up some tasty chicken soup to bring to a family member that has a bad cold
