Daily Idea #70: Give a Little

Here in LA things are slowly opening up (I know most of the US has already started this process and some people are even eating in restaurants already!)

After so long at home it feels weird bringing the kids to the park or to the store or even going on a walk with a friend. We went for a walk the other day and my 4 year old wanted to hold hands with our friend; it was so difficult for him to understand that we can’t hold hands or give hugs. But we can still do kind things for each other.

Just because we can’t physically show our affection doesn’t mean we can’t show love. So today we are giving compliments. We are making an effort to see the good in others at least 5 times. Compliment someone on their outfit (I like the bow on your dress) or their action (that was so nice of you to let your brother go before you). The more we use language to bring others up, the easier it becomes.
