The end of 2010
Well, 2010 has come to an end and with it comes the end to the Year of Giving Back! I want to thank everyone that participated in the monthly gives and encourage you to keep giving. There was a song on the country station awhile ago that talks about all the advice given and some of the words are: don't let your prayin' knees get lazy and help somebody if you can. These are two things that are completely free! Everyone can pray for others and all of us can help others when they need it. Sometimes it's as simple as a phone call to cheer someone up.
Treven and I had a conversation just before Christmas and I was trying to get through to him that Christmas isn't all about presents. He looked at me and said, "It's about love, huh mom?" I said yes. Then he said, "It's weird that it's Jesus' birthday, but we get all the presents." I told him that we could give Jesus birthday gifts all year long if we help others. Every time we do something unselfishly for someone else, it is a gift for Jesus.
Anyway, thanks again for taking part of our project! Please continue to use this blog as a way to announce new babies, missionary calls, reunion plans, etc. I hate to see it just disappear!
Thanks again,
Danelle
