Still, it became a permanent fixture in our kitchen up until we moved this past summer. Seeing it on a daily basis was a constant reminder to be grateful even for the simplest things.
Last November, we each made individual posters as a family night activity and then added to it throughout the month - using these questions to spark ideas and help inspire an ongoing attitude of gratitude.
Now that November has rolled around again, it's time to continue the tradition and reflect on the many things we have been blessed with in our lives. The kids are currently debating between making a "Thankful Tree"- where you write what you are grateful for on a paper leaf and add to it each day - or a "Thankful Turkey" - where you add paper feathers - a clever little idea that my friend, Jenny, shared with us. Their family's turkey is already adorned with plenty of feathers which she'll be posting about this week right here!
*Does your family have a special way of showing gratitude during the holiday season or throughout the year? Thanks for sharing!
