Zoey is grateful for...her library books. (I love how she sets up her photo shots every day. She even fanned out these books "just so" before taking the picture.)
Nikki is grateful for...those random moments when reminded that I am "Special Today".
Pazely is grateful for...her new light-up sock monkey snow globe.
A little side note:
I found myself starting to get involved with what my kids are grateful for. It's been interesting to see what they come up with everyday in our "Month of Gratitude" photo project. But it doesn't always make sense to me. At first I was like, "You're grateful for a toilet??" And I almost tried to take Pazely in a different direction--to give her some more meaningful things to be grateful for. I mean, seriously, a light-up sock monkey snow globe??
But, I decided to back off. I realized that, as long as the attitude of gratefulness is in them, I REALLY shouldn't be so picky about what they are thankful for. And of course the things that mean something to them are going to be different than what is important to me. I am now just grateful that they are grateful.
Just thought I'd share...
