SERVICE WITHOUT A TRACE
Kelli taught a wonderful lesson on Sunday about serving others. Using President Monson's recent Conference talk, she posed the question: "What have you done for someone else today?" We were all challenged to find someone to serve this week, then report back on the blog. She gave us a paper that said "You've been S.W.A.T.ed (Service Without a Trace)" to leave for the people we serve. I'm anxious to see what kinds of service we come up with this week!

Well, my service wasn't anonymous--they knew who did it. I have the most wonderful parents and younger sister who are always willing to baby-sit for us. Last night Brent and I went downtown for the 1st Presidency Christmas Devotional while my family baby-sat. Since they do so much for me, I wanted to do something for them, so I made them a nice dinner to eat while they baby-sat. It made me feel good to know that I could do something small for them while they were serving me.
On Monday morning I made each of my 3 girls beds and cleaned up their rooms. It didn't take me long and it made me feel happy all day!!! I think they know who did the service for them, but it was fun anyway. I'm glad I could teach the lesson to you girls. You are AWESOME!

I told a lady at the grocery store that her head band was cute.
Then I shared a CHEX coupon with a lady who had CHEX in her basket but didn't have a coupon! It was fun.
I did a free haircut tonight for a client that did something for me a few weeks ago! It felt good!

Kelli

Kelli
I love that idea! I am going to try it out!
hey hey hey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm the candy bar hog!!!!!!!!!!!
i'm going to SWAT someone right now.
hahahaaaa just did! i'll tell you in the next comment because i want to get that candy bar and share it with everyone
just kidding, not everyone, only select people
ok. sooo my little brother was sleeping, surprisingly enough, and i put a blanket on him because it was like 2 degrees in our house! & since he was asleep he didn't know who threw a blanket at him heehee
I was in Walmart the other day and a little girl (about 3 years old) was throwing a tantrum because she needed a kleenex but all her mom had was a baby wipe, which of course she did not want to use. I had a kleenex, so I offered it to the mom and the girl calmed down right away. That didn't take any effort on my part, yet I'm sure meant a lot to the mom!
I made my brother's and my sister's bed.
Thanks for sharing your S.W.A.T.ing stories. Keep it up. You can still do kind acts of service even in January!!!
Kelli
