Gratitude Journal

My friend Julie and I are attempting gratitude journals.  Originally I thought I'd do it on a tablet on fridge but I think I'll snap pics during the day and try to blog everyday! 

I mean it's been awhile since I was consistent here and really this is more worthwhile (at least most of the time) than social media.

I would have loved if my mom had made a gratitude journal when jon, les and I were growing up-  that's even better than pictures I think!  So hopefully the kids can come here sometime and see I did at least attempt positivity and joy in my life.

I mean the object is to replace stress, anxiety and frustration with thanksgiving right?!

So here's five of my blessings today/ yesterday:

What I'm doing RIGHT now.... sitting with a cup of coffee after a busy long day so far and watching an episode of Friends all by myself!  This is my first year of having the kids at school all day and it's been so good to have more time for all things under the sun! 

Maisie going on a trip to Hawaii with Pam and Phoebe... and all the treasures I just bought her for her trip!  I'm so thankful we can afford to get her these sorts of things!

 
Sweaty workouts ... feels so good again!

My friend's  new healthy baby girl!!

 

Henry -  playing hide and seek with him last night and how goofy he is!!

 
Yes he thought he could hide there and be invisible.


I am blessed.
