Summer update! Gratitude and Giving

Tatum and I are having a great summer so far. We continue to work on our gratitude journal daily. Look at her printing! This morning, Ella joined us.

Anyway, her writing is getting so strong, and the original plan was to couple her work on handwriting with giving thanks. We are accomplishing both so effectively.

It’s so easy to take the time we have together for granted, so I am being intentional about making sure we focus on others. We have a neighbor named Bob who is 66, disabled, and retired. He lives alone and he really needs some TLC. Today, we made him a card

and some cookies.

When we do get our eyes off ourselves, it cures any negative attitudes. Being grateful and giving truly equals joy.

I love you, Tot. You have such spirit and a great heart.
