Do you know what your love language is? Mine is giving. I love doing things for people, whether big or small – or even just a little note or gift to someone dear to my heart. It truly makes me happy to see the smile on their face. Better yet, I like doing random acts of kindness and the person never knows who did that little something special for them.

With the approaching holiday season I want to challenge you to do some random acts of kindness, or just a little something special for someone. If you need some ideas or inspiration here is a list. I’d love your ideas too of things to do, so leave me a comment.
