“Doing little things with a strong desire to please God makes them really great.” – St. Francis De Sales.
It was a little thing, but it meant a lot to me and my 2 brothers. Whenever a major winter storm hit in Michigan, my brothers and I would gather up our shovels and spend the day shoveling our own long driveway and then our neighbors for a few dollars. It was cold, the snow was heavy, and at the end of the day our backs were aching and arms were sore. As we walked in the door, my mom greeted us with a warm smile and a huge mug of hot chocolate with tiny marshmallows floating at the top. The pain seemed to melt away. Thanks mom!!
