"Talk a walk down memory lane"..... well, last night while me and my hubby where home eating dinner I saw a commercial where some boys open their Christmas presents (guitars), they saw it and all 3 of them fainted. So naturally I over think it :)
I asked scott if he had ever had a christmas present that he felt that way about... not the fainting but just something that he was sooooo excited to open and that question led us to a conversation to about the Christmas's we experienced growing up and some of our favorite Christmas memories.... We both had several memories to share, we also begin to share random experiences as a kid that where we had something super cool happen. I shared one time when I came home from school and my mom had 2 rabbits..... big... stuffed rabbits sitting on my bed.. they had velcro hands so you could wrap their arms around your neck etc. The big velcro rabbit was hugging the little one... the big was for me and the little one was for my little sis. I just remember it was sooooo exciting to me.
I felt so loved by this random gift given on a random day.... no holiday..... no special occasion..... JUST BECAUSE...... just because I'm loved- it meant the world to me!
So I thought I would challenge you with something that I have been challenged with:
1) Take a stroll down memory lane, remember how sweet and precious life is, think about your favorite holiday memories and share it with someone over a cup of coffee- I will be asking everyone one I can from now till Christmas, Im super curious.
2) Do something spontaneously thoughtful for someone you love just because you love them - no one ever overdoses on random sweetness.... I dont think we take enough time to just show someone we love them just because we love them.
Have a wonderful day - hope you take the time to do this :)
-missa
