I see so much sadness on the boards. I want to try something new. Most of us have our good moments during the day that we sometimes take for granted. So....I want to start a gratitude journal for everyone to use and enjoy. I see so many positive things on here that makes me smile that's going on in other's lives. Let's all share our smiles. Okay, maybe I'm being corny, but we all needs smiles. It also lets us see that we do have good things going in our lives.
So I'll start it off...
First of all it is Friday. The rain has stopped. The kids had their first pep assembly at school today and I got to watch my daughter cheer and dance. I also got to see her cheer and dance at the first football game. It's her senior year and I want to enjoy it along with her.
Second I gave my high school students a writing assignment today. I told them to write a paragraph about the kindest person they have ever known. I got some very heartfelt responses, mainly about their mothers, grandmothers, and best friends. I even had one write about me...AWWWWW...it made my day!
Okay, everyone keep it going, it's your turn!
Hugs, Yoyo
