CARING FOR OTHERS............CELEBRATE THEIR LIVES

CARING FOR OTHERS.........CELEBRATE THEIR LIVES



We can care for others by helping celebrate the days of their lives. This doesn't have to be expensive or a large party held by you. It can just be a time of celebration that shows you care.



A birthday; getting through chemo treatments; a new baby; a bridal or baby shower; good grades; trying their best; new job; encouragement; a special teacher; a special friend; or any occasion.



Celebrate! Celebrate! Bring out the balloons! Bring out the streamers! It can just spell fun!

Children love having a celebration over little things in their lives that you make a big deal out of!



My Aunt Michelle is the best at sending out birthday cards to everyone in the family!!! She always includes a little confetti to spill out of the card all over. Would you enjoy that or would you complain about the confetti? I just love that she is so caring!



Here are some ideas to help you celebrate others lives:



1. Buy cards ; balloons; streamers; flowers or 1 cupcake and yell surprise!

2. Make a special breakfast with the works!! Splurge a little for this one time!

3. Go to a shut ins house and take Spring flowers to plant and make a celebration yard!

4. Bake some goodies and give out a celebration to a family.

5. Welcome someone with a nice meal.

6. Help the children honor a teacher with signs; candy ect.....

7. Look for someone who needs a celebration and do your best to create one!

8. Send a missionary child or missionary a Happy Birthday message via e-mail!

9. Take a medium envelope from Walmart and stuff it with a celebration and send it to someone

10. Where ever you are ; whatever funds available ; find a way to celebrate!
