Gratitude

November 15, 2017

As Thanksgiving approaches, we begin reflecting in earnest on all the things in our lives that we need to be grateful for and our Elementary children are doing just that.

It is quite amazing to watch these children ponder on their young lives and conclude that they have much to give thanks for.

It is a humbling experience indeed and one that many adults could copy and use in their daily lives.
Our children shared that they were thankful for life; for Mother Nature; for family; friends; their school and teachers: to highlight a few of their thoughts.

We should be like these beautiful children and try to find something each day to be thankful for.
