Gratitude

 The month of November makes me happy.  I love taking the time to really focus on being grateful, and looking for all the blessings in our lives.
 We really try to engage our family in the season of Thanksgiving, and counting our blessings.
 We do different activities each year, but this year, as we are making a huge GRATEFUL poster.  As we think of things we are thankful for, we are writing them down on our poster.  We are hoping to have the entire thing full of blessings by the time Thanksgiving day is over.  Afterwards, it will get framed and hung on the wall to remind us that gratitude isn't just a holiday thing, it's how happy people live.  After-all, as the saying goes: "It is not happy people who are thankful, it is thankful people who are happy".
