Debbie! I remember years ago reading Simple Abundance and she suggested a gratitude journal. I started it right away and have kept it up ever since. Now it's here at the Village and it's neat to look back and see what was important to us a certian day and to find even one thing we are thankful for. I'm happy that you enjoy doing it too.

1. my rough start to the day turned out better in the afternoon
2. the ability to sit and watch a movie this afternoon and relax
3. addressing my 7 yr old's sons eating & sleeping problems
4. the joy it gave me to watch the kids eating homemade popsicles after dinner by the pool!
