Gratitude

People who are grateful are happier. I believe this to be true. As an exercise for myself I want to spend time this month of November to write down some of the things I am grateful for.

I'm grateful for my children who keep my grounded. Who remind me to find joy in the little things in life. They give me opportunities to grow as I practice patience, charity, love, and courage. They bring me such joy. They have taught me a deeper meaning of the word love, especially what it must mean for our Heavenly Father to love us. They keep me laughing (and crying), but above all, they make me feel grateful to be alive- to have the opportunity to be a mother.
