For this week I thought it was time to pick something a little less heavy. This week's challenge is to visit someone elderly. This is something we've done before, but I always have a great experience when we do this. There is so much to learn from people who are farther down the road from you. I think it's so enriching to have friendships with people who are in a different stage of life. I have a plan to take some children from church to visit a couple of widows. I think it'll be great.
That's all for this week. Feel free to share any experiences you had from last week's challenge. Thanks for stopping by.
This is a wonderful wake up Wenesday-- especially as grandparent's day is this weekend!
ReplyDeleteI am sensitive to this in my empty nest stage. When you raise your own children, speaking kindly to and about others is a lot better solution that finding fault. When they get married, you hope this important upbringing will continue to be a part of how they raise their own families.
ReplyDeleteI love the new wake up Wednesday idea! We're already doing it. :) We visit my husband's grandparents every 1st, 3rd, and 5th Sunday nights of the month. We hang out with them for a couple hours each time. I think it's a good experience for our young daughter too.
