So, I was sitting here thinking about how blessed we've been this year for Christmas. I am just overwhelmed by it! I don't know about you, but when I've been blessed by others, there's something inside of me that makes me want to give back.
I have no money, so to give to a charity or something is out of the question unless it's something like The Dose of Reality is helping Rants From Mommyland do where you sign-up for something and an organization donates money to a worthy cause. That was fun and great to be a part of, and I hope the rest of you were able to be a part of (and hopefully in a bigger way than I was able to be) something like this, too.
I have made goodies for the neighbors, doctors in the doctor's office, choir members and our Sunday school class which have all been delivered. I've handed out our holiday pictures and holiday cards and sent them off to family. We've bought presents for our kids and family, though not much, but still a wonderful thing to be able to do thanks to a check and a gift card. We donated items to our local version of a Goodwill. We've been kind and helpful where we can, but still I wanted to do more.
And then, an idea struck me. I have yet to give something to my blogger family! And what do bloggers like more than comments? Well, I can't think of anything! So, here's my idea: We do a link-up called, "Merry Christmas, Blogger-Style!"
Who's with me? Grab a badge below and start spreading the comment love, so we can have a Merry Christmas, Blogger-style! :)
