What Have I Done for Someone Today?
Today I spent time with a good friend laughing and chatting and telling stories. I know this may sound like pure fun (or an excuse not to study for a test tomorrow), but I believe that when we make time for those we care about, we are serving them. Yes, I needed the evening to relax and laugh just as much as she did, but still... it was service! Besides, I helped her flush a lodged ball of wax from her little girl's ear! (ewwwww, I know!) If that's not service, I don't know what is! Let's just say it was fortunate I didn't throw up! :)
Challenge: What about you? Big or small, what have you done for someone today?

I did the same thing today and it was really fun. A win-win for us both, but I know that this particular friend of mine was so thankful we took time out of our day to be with her - and I'm sure your friend felt the same way. Love your challenge! I'm doing my own, but will write about my experience when the 30 days are through :)
When I was having dinner this evening, there was a soldier sitting a few tables away from me. I asked if I could pay for her meal. She probably thanked me 5 times. I just wanted to do something nice for her.
I built Taygan a play fort.
7 hours of party hosting, food making and replenishing, drink refilling, and three days of ordering, picking up and even more days PLANNING said bday party. I am sore like an old woman today. But she had a great party!
