Gratitude is where its at!!

This time last year, I was doing a lot of research on Gratitude in preparation for a seminar that I was asked to do. In my studies I came to understand just how incredibly powerful the state of gratitude can be. It is, in fact, the single most powerful emotion in its ability to alter perspective.

Building on this concept and bringing it closer to home, I wanted to set something in motion that would being a constant reminder of the importance of gratitude as well as something that would encourage myself and my kids to keep this as our focus so that we can continue to build on the good things and energy that being grateful creates. So....I decided to put up a huge dry erase board in the office of our home in which we would write random things that we were grateful for as we think of them. I also thought it would be cool and create even more great energy to have all those who enter our home leave us with something that they are grateful for. We are loving it and the kids love to write and read what others have written. It makes us smile every time we look at it and brings such a great feeling to our home. :0) We just started it this week and already, this is what ours looks like:
