Care Package Kindness!

I put my thinking cap on and tried to come up with some things people have done for me in the past that totally made me smile.  I hate to confess this, but I was stumped for a little while!  So I went for a walk on this gorgeous 86 degree weather day.  When I got to my mail box it hit me... when I was in college I used to love getting care packages!  It was the greatest feeling to check my little tiny jmu mailbox only to find a slip of paper that said I needed to pick up a package!

Now, I'm not in college anymore, which only means one thing when it comes to the mailbox.  Bills, bills, and more bills!  Which is far from a random act of kindness!  So I decided that this week I will be sending out care packages to a few friends and acquaintances!  

I made my list of 4 people and tonight I will be hitting up the dollar store looking for a few goodies!  None of these people will be expecting it.  And they're probably not reading this blog so hopefully it will be a surprise!  

Stay tuned - I will share my tales of care package kindness with you throughout the week!  Let me challenge you... pick a friend, maybe someone you haven't talked to in a while.  Send them something thoughtful and random!  I'm sure it will bring a smile to their faces!
