Raising Grateful Kids

My mom shared this Ann Voskamp post with me, and I absolutely love it!! We are totally going to start putting some of these ideas into practice.  I totally recommend checking it out!! Just click on this link.... 15 Ways to Raise Grateful Kids

Here's just one of the many ideas I want to start doing. You can see the rest here.... (this was taken directly from Ann Voskamp's post)

Each day when they come to the table for lunch, Shalom passes around the the pad of sticky notes shaped like tulips blooming.
Levi writes down: “I am thankful for my Dad. For rain today making the wheat grow. For hot soup and good bread.”
Hope sticks her sticky note ‘flower’ to the window too. Everyday we count blessings, grow blooms, right there on window panes, right there in places inside of us that let us see everything more clearly.
