This week has been fun filled with VBS. Every night at supper to encourage my daughter to talk about what she learned we would take turns as a family talking about our favorite part of the day. Great way to promote positive conversation at the dinner table.

We’ve enjoyed going to Bible School together this week, ran errands together this morning, and are going to a local music festival together tomorrow! Then on Sunday, we’re heading on an overnight trip to spend time at a local church assembly with my side of the family! I LOVE summer because we get to spend more time together as a family!

When my girls were younger we would regularly go to our local grocery store, early in the morning, & collect the day old breads & pastries that the store was tossing out. Many of them were still good quality.) Sometimes we’d fill our trunk AND our back seat! Then we’d deliver the items to the food bank & homeless shelters in our area. One time the shelters were overflowing with food but they told us that the Laguna Beach shelter was in need. So we drove about 15 miles to make the delivery. It was a great way for my girls to learn that there were plenty of other people in harder situations than ours. Seeing the happy smiles at the delivery end was really uplifting.

I did #4, I packed up a care package for my mom and sent it out to her. I sent her some snickerdoodles, a couple books I know she’d love, and some jewelry I won on a blog contest.

2. Having my oldest help make dinner.
3. Increasing our kind words!

We did game night on Monday, and played Sorry on the Wii. We were going to play the board game version, but that means little pieces for little hands to grab, run off with and try to eat! Much safer with the Wii!

[...] look to see what your Church or kids groups have planned for the summer. Definitely check out the Mom It Forward challenge. What we love about the Mom It Forward suggestions is that they remind us that we should all be [...]
