Life Vest Inside - Kindness Boomerang - "One Day"

I can blame it on sickness, I literally was sick for half of the month. I can blame it on being busy. I am sure I could find a million thing to blame it on but I totally dropped the ball on Heartfelt Acts in September.

This month's goals were:
SEPTEMBER
1.  Buy some Cat and Dog treats that can be donated to a local Animal Shelter.
2.  Leave a generous tip to a server. 


So to help me get more motivation and to just inspire your day, watch this video. 
You never know how one little thing can change someone's day.  So here is to me hoping that something kind I did this last month made an impact that I will never realize. 
Here are October's goals, please join us in spreading a little more good. 
OCTOBER
1.  Buy a gift card with a value of your choice and choose a random person to give it to.
2.  Send a letter to a friend to let them know you were thinking about them.


Also- get to announce the winner for The Smartest Kids in the World

a Rafflecopter giveaway


Congrats Amy!  I will e-mail you.  
Also-- in case you missed yesterday's post, you will want to go see why I am going to let me kids fail.
There is also still time to Link up with 10 Things to Smile About this Month.

      Yes, every month there are a couple of goals, you can do those or even any thing of your own that you want, just something to get you to give a little and serve.

    I am crossing my fingers that is me who won. :)
    Last December someone gave us a gift card anonymously and it was such a big deal! Things like that really do make a difference.

    Are you at least feeling any better?! Did the antibiotics help?

    Great video, right!? Really do wish life worked like that all of the time-- and maybe it does and we just don't notice it. We've come this far, so October should be great! :) If anything, think of all the candy we'll be donating to the children around our neighborhood on the 31st! hah
