Today’s kind act began this morning in our pyjamas! Ezzie and I decorated some Christmas cards for the residents of the care home that is a few doors down from our house. I am really thinking of those that are living and working in care homes this Christmas- it must have been a frightening yearContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 24”

Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 18
This morning, Sam and I started writing Christmas cards and it got me thinking about all the thank you cards we wrote after Etta died- to all the doctors, nurses and midwives that had been involved in her care. I realised there were lots of other people I wanted to thank too. So today’s kindContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 18”

Today was a lovely Christmassy one! We made Christmas wreaths!! One is for my Mum and Dad’s front door (who live down the road), one is for our door and we made an extra for a friend. He’s just bought his first home and we didn’t think he’d buy one for his first Christmas there!Here’sContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 10”

Today’s kind act is definitely going to become a Woolford family Christmas tradition! We got a Macdonalds drive-thru breakfast on our way to choose a Christmas tree and paid for the person’s food behind us. Sam and I felt like naughty schoolchildren when Sam asked the server if it was possible. Sam saw the womanContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 9”

Today’s act of kindness is to shop small/local/ second hand! Basically whatever we can do to not shop at Amazon as a lot of the high street stores are struggling this year too! I have been trying to use Etsy as my first call before Amazon this year to see if I can support aContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 8”

Today’s kind act was perfect for a chilly day like today. As a family, we got wrapped up in our woolly hats and scarves (and my favourite snuggly woolly coatigan) to take part in #winterwoollyweds for Child Bereavement UK. All you need to do is get wrapped up and donate as little or as muchContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 7”

Today, we got a little Christmassy in the kitchen making reindeer food! I offered to make a big batch for Ezzie’s pre-school. They are selling them at £1 a bag and funds are going towards buying them some outdoor equipment. I’m really looking forward to sprinkling this on the lawn with Ezzie on Christmas Eve.Continue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign Day 4”

Today’s kind act is buying an ethical advent calendar. I know what you’re thinking… it’s not December!! But I wanted to share now in case this was one people wanted to join in with and they hadn’t sorted out an advent calendar yet. I chose to gift Sam an ‘Advent of Change’ Advent Calendar whichContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign- Day 3”
Better for Etta Kindness Campaign- Day 2
Today I chose a present for Etta’s birthday from the Bristol Children’s Hospital wish list. The play department (which was a real source of joy for us and Ezzie while at BCH) have chosen the toys they think will be most popular . I was delighted to see some of the presents that I hadContinue reading “Better for Etta Kindness Campaign- Day 2”
