"Practice random acts of kindness and senseless acts of beauty" ~Ann Herbert
On Sunday, my friend Heather of Create Your Own Beautiful, and I participated in Plant a Kiss Day. Plant a Kiss Day was organized by pal Sherry Richert Belul to celebrate the message behind Amy Krouse Rosenthal's book, Plant a Kiss, a story about how one small act of kindness can bloom.
Heather teaches an awesome dance fitness class, ShimmyPop!, at Hipline on Sundays, so after class we "planted a kiss" by giving all of her students flowers and oranges. Fun!
Even though Plant a Kiss Day was on Sunday, you can plant one yourself any day (like today!).
