Today I finally followed my own advice, put everything else aside, and made Thanksgiving cards with my kiddos. I won’t post photos because I don’t want to ruin the surprise for the recipients (you are out there!). So you’ll just have to imagine how much fun we had – markers, ink, paper, turkeys, baby wipes, paints. The boys helped me list reasons why we are thankful for the people in each letter. Simple, really. But it was just the right thing to boost me up to feel the Spirit of Thanksgiving.
I heard this in high school and still believe it’s true:
Gratitude is the attitude that makes optimism possible.
So today I’m:
Loving this new resource.
Smiling at this.
Keeping a journal like his.
Planning to do this.
What are you enjoying today?
I am definitely enjoying this blog post today. Thank you!
