Last week was such a bad week. I kept trying to pick myself up and have a better outlook evey day. It just seemed like every day things kept happening despite trying to be positive. So here is putting that positive vibe out there and hoping a better week will come from it!

What are you grateful for in your life. List as few or as many things as you want but at least one.

Here are mine.

I am grateful for my kids!
I am grateful that I have custody of my kids.
I am grateful for my family
I am grateful for my friends even though my two best friend live quite a distance BF 2 hours other BF 4 hours. Would rather have them in my life a bit away than not at all

I am grateful I don't live in a world where I walk out my door and its a war zone.

I am grateful I have a vehicle to drive.
I am grateful my kids are in good health.
I am grateful I am healthy physically anyway lol
I am grateful my son gets help with his problems. OT and speech theropy

I am sure I could go on and on but that should do it for now!

What a great Posting BF99!!!
My kids & I do this EVERY night after we say our prayers...We each take turns saying
1) Our favorite part of the whole day
2) What we are thankful for that day
3)Something new we learned that day

It is just as important for ME to remember sometimes that no matter how rough things get there is something to be grateful for each day!!

Today I am grateful for ~
My Children
I am healthy & everyone I love is healthy
My family & close friends
I love my work & I'm Happy to go tomorrow
My ex husband has been quiet & leaving me alone
My son's baseball is canceled tonight so I don't have to sit in the drizzle & cold for 2 hours with my 5 yr old daughter
The Celtics won & are moving on in the playoffs
The Red Sox & getting to hang out w/ my parents, my kids & one of my brothers & watch the game
Tomorrow is cinco de Mayo & we can have taco's for dinner & maybe even a Corona
* just a few things off the top of my head...I am sure there is so much more to add. Some silly, some deep, but all good!!

I like your suggestion about how you end your day with the kids. That's nice. I always ask mine what there favorite part of the day is and what there worst part is. Not the thankful thing though I like that!
