12 days of Thanksgiving

One last thing that I thought of that I am going to do with my family this year is the 12 Days of Thanksgiving.  I know, I know, you are thinking I am confused with the 12 Days of Christmas, but I am not.  Yes we do the 12 Days of Christmas, but why shouldn’t we also do the 12 Days of Thanksgiving?  Here is what I propose… we all do the 12 Days of Thanksgiving starting Next Saturday. . 

 For every day between next Saturday and Thanksgiving Day we find a way to give Thanks by doing some sort of an act of kindness for someone that shows them how thankful we are to have them in our lives.  It can be something simple like writing them a cute note, or it can be baking them a homemade pie (pick me, pick me!), or it can be helping them with a project they have been trying to finish, or just anything.  Find someone to do that for every day for the 12 day period and keep a little journal each night of the 12 day experience.  You can start it this year as a new annual Thanksgiving Day Tradition for your family to do.  I am going to start it with my family and I am really excited about it.  I can’t think of a better way to get into the spirit of this season, can you? 

Happy Countdown to Thanksgiving everyone!  And share your experiences this month as you do your countdown!  I would love to hear all the great things that happen to you this month and any great Thanksgiving ideas you can share with all of us!  Please share!

Con amor,
