@Katie @ Kitchen Stewardship, The “stumble discovery” comes up when you are the first to stumble that particular post. Otherwise, the “thumbs up” should just turn green when you click it.

I posted a link to this on my Facebook account for a friend who had a bad day letting her know she’s one of my favorite bucket fillers.

When I was a teacher we had a speaker come in for the kids talking about our “buckets” and the whole year we talked with the kids about “bucket-fillers” and “bucket-empty-ers”. I didn’t know there was a book though. Very cool.

I’ll stumble your post – I think! Do you know why sometimes hitting the thumbs up doesn’t seem to do anything and sometimes it brings up a “stumble discovery”? I feel like I didn’t do it right when nothing happens when I “thumbs up”. ???

Love this post!! Filling buckets is very important!! I have been trying to teach this to my children, but am not sure if they really get it or not. I know that there are many times that I need to be reminded to fill someone else’s bucket. I will have to read this book to my little ones to help reinforce this idea. Thank you!!

Great post – as usual! I love the whole bucket filling and teaching it to children. In today’s “it’s all about me” society, this is a great way to get our children to take the focus off themselves and start thinking about others.

I have found that the best way to change how I’m feeling for the better is to help someone else. I love that you shared this – and that your kids got to hear it.
