1) Hold someone’s hand when they least expect it.
2) Write a letter in real handwriting on real paper, and mail
it with a real stamp.
3) Tell a joke.
4) Kiss someone with or without mistletoe. Lips, cheek,
head, hand all are very nice.
5) Invite someone to your favorite place and tell them why
they are there with you .
6) Add an extra ribbon, bell, sprig of holly, or lottery
ticket to a package you wrap.
7) Cook something you’ve never cooked before; share it with
someone you’ve never shared with before.
8) Choose one person who is not expecting a gift and give
them one. Give it too late for them to reciprocate.
9) Hold a door for someone when you’re the one in a hurry.
10) Talk to someone who lives alone. Not just hello, but a
real conversation.
11) Hum a Christmas song close enough so other people can
hear you and then smile when they
look your way.
12) Let your spouse sleep late and your kids get up early.
Do you have a gift to give on the 13th day of Christmas? Visit me at www.rebeccaforster.com, tell me about your gift, and choose the book you’d like my Christmas Elves to send you.
Have a wonderful and blessed holiday.
aw, what a lovely message! I am going to print your list & put it into practice immediately. TY for such a thoughtful compilation! :)
ReplyDeletePS - I don't know about anyone else, but if elves are sending me a gift, I'm not the sort to be choosy! I'd be grateful for whatever came my way! :)
