Next up: Possessions. I’m actually doing this in conjunction
with clothes week since I’m going to be on the other side of the country
visiting my sister for most of the real week 3.
Oh, possessions. I have a lot of stuff. Most of it I hold on
to with open hands, but there are *far* too many handfuls.
This week, I’m going to go through 13 rooms/areas of our
home and give away 7 things from each. That’s 91 items. Some rooms may have 70
things I could give away. Jen Hatmaker gave away 7 things a day for 30 days,
which is 210 items. That’s my second goal: 210 items.
Carter is getting in on this action. He really loves his
stuff, and that concerns me. I want to find a local resource, maybe an
orphanage or women and children’s shelter, to donate these things to, and I
want him to go with me and hand it over. It’s so important to us that he
understands how blessed our life is, and how we are called to share with
others. I’m not quite sure how that’s all going to go, but it’s so important to
shepherd his little heart. And mine, too.
