a wall to feature your festive masterpiece and attach the following description

Be the miracle! Find a local charity that needs toys, gift cards, or food and adorn
a “Giving Tree” with ornaments and/or tags that each list one needed item. Instruct
people to grab a tag of their choice and donate the needed items by placing
them under the tree (or in a safer place). Not all charities receive the help
they seek during the holidays.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

As a team, choose a day of service and local charity to serve. Collect gift
cards, donate food or money, decorate the outside of their building, write a

family successfully accomplish goals! FILE CONTAINS: 8 Goal Charts (4 with
temple image and 4 without temple image), 7 Reward Chart options, and
instructional pages. Help your child set goals in 4 diverse categories, and be
successful. I have had a hard time figuring out how to make the new Children
and Youth program, our church created, successful in our home. I finally
figured it out by creating these charts and plans, and it has worked beautifully!
Keep in mind, that does not mean my kids are cheering me on, haha. Take
courage, as good things will come as you lovingly teach your children.</span></span></div><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #222222;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #222222; text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white;">Since everyone is different, I decided to create a
variety of forms that could help each family's needs. Do not be overwhelmed by
the number of pages as you will most likely not use all of them. I suggest
reading through the Action Plan instructional pages and the Reward Idea
instructional pages. Then, print the forms that you think would fit your family
and time the best, and move forward. When you feel the need for something new,
revisit these files and print more! You can do it, one step at a time!</span></div>

They were incredible. I told my 10-year-old I needed an idea for Valentines and seconds later she came up with this idea. After I told my 12-year-old about the idea, I found drawings all over my bathroom mirror (a place I like to draw my plans). She was on fire! I teamed them up and had them create a mock version of the game. Then, as a family we played and played and played some more! Check it out and share it with a friend :).</span></div><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiJlSpfS9N05dKjoatBbT3y-Zx0ckHDAn9_Ama-XdwrdsxUQa-57wcruPOmlvRiWddEler9gIa4uSkFahahdnS5FTHk74lo0DoQI0ELY1Sfx8k37RUfidkV5e-_urpR9_AC7zaXQYwsKKBFgde52MnZuKc7una60e8JKzdheV05eqQT6xZrT3FClIJO=s1080" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="810" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiJlSpfS9N05dKjoatBbT3y-Zx0ckHDAn9_Ama-XdwrdsxUQa-57wcruPOmlvRiWddEler9gIa4uSkFahahdnS5FTHk74lo0DoQI0ELY1Sfx8k37RUfidkV5e-_urpR9_AC7zaXQYwsKKBFgde52MnZuKc7una60e8JKzdheV05eqQT6xZrT3FClIJO=w300-h400" width="300" /></a></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiIWxSKRFXZ2WLjxMy5oUDtXnsQlPxIUxwuuDlK3RjVKrAbqZiOIfOiqqE54zWKrnRMwsCzSpOXaiX37wpRGnh-Q-DmFA1luQrHMVsgKOjrhKf4qPSoUyqiRujitNaQocBOZmvyVO5uXIvtdYqzcg9xziBUwIb8lFCYZzrUL4QlU-d_F6r9fY4xd8IT=s1080" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="786" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiIWxSKRFXZ2WLjxMy5oUDtXnsQlPxIUxwuuDlK3RjVKrAbqZiOIfOiqqE54zWKrnRMwsCzSpOXaiX37wpRGnh-Q-DmFA1luQrHMVsgKOjrhKf4qPSoUyqiRujitNaQocBOZmvyVO5uXIvtdYqzcg9xziBUwIb8lFCYZzrUL4QlU-d_F6r9fY4xd8IT=w291-h400" width="291" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Raleway; font-size: large;">I purchased these resealable bags for the game and instructions at Walmart.

font-size: medium;">This poem has become my motto this fall. It all started one day when I was struggling with who I was, and a thought crossed my mind..."Do I want today to be Ordinary or Extraordinary?" Or, am I "Ordinary or Extraordinary?" </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">So, using an expo marker I wrote this thought of "Ordinary or Extraordinary" across my bathroom mirror and started experimenting with it. While biking in the mornings I would ask myself this question and then proceed to smile and wave at every person I saw. After a few days, I quickly made friends with people on my route who seemed to look forward to my friendly greetings. I also felt better about myself and renewed in purpose. </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Quicksand; font-size: medium;">I have tried to apply this concept in all my decisions. As I do so, it clearly blesses my life and those around me. This doesn't always mean that I choose the harder or loftier task at hand. For me, it means that I listen to that still small voice and act upon its promptings. As my extraordinary moments turn into ordinary occurrences, life gets brighter and brighter for all...most especially me :)!</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Merriweather Sans; font-size: medium;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: start;">“Believe in yourself.

text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Raleway; font-size: medium;">This is may be an odd notion, but YOU matter! My daughter came home years ago and taught us about bucket filling. I thought it was a great concept, but didn't think of it again until my friend recently voiced concern about filling her bucket. So, I tried to look up ideas online and couldn't find any adult bucket filling ideas. Seriously?? We have buckets too and ours often provide the substance for the smaller buckets. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Raleway; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Raleway; font-size: medium;">We have all had days where our bucket is dried up or we feel like we are running on empty. At that moment we may choose to escape to the restroom/closet, eat a sweet treat, or do whatever we can to quickly rejuvenate ourselves. Sometimes it lasts...and sometimes it doesn't stick at all. Figuring out ways to keep your bucket filled is crucial! You matter, and so do the people in your life. Take a moment to serve yourself each day. </span><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Raleway;">I asked people in my circle how they fill their bucket...especially in those 5 minutes or less crisis. </span><span style="font-family: Raleway;">Check out these bucket filling ideas collected from women ages 6-63. Come up with a plan for yourself. Then, share this with someone you care about.

behavior therapy on yourself. When negative thoughts are running through your
mind, get them out, identify the lie, and replace it with truth. Example:
My kitchen is always a mess. Lie- "always" is an
exaggeration. Truth- Often my kitchen is messy. Sometimes it's clean.
Maybe it will be clean more someday, but it doesn't determine my worth. I'm
still a worthwhile human being whether my kitchen is clean or not. You can
do this out loud but writing it down is even better. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

Find a blank notebook or journal and paste a copy of the poem, found below, inside the front cover. Have your child write the first entry. They could include pictures, games, drawings... Encourage both friends to date each entry. Then, pass it back and forth between friends. Have fun! This idea was adapted from my previous <a href="http://www.mycreativestirrings.com/2009/09/sweetheart-journal.html" target="_blank">Sweetheart Journal</a> post which would work better if their is a romantic twang to your friendship :).</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
