We have decided as a family to make a list of all the things we are thankful for. I read on a blog (and I thought I knew which one it was and when I went searching for it I wasn't able to find it.... so thanks to that special someone for this idea!) Anyway, I am using a vase I already had and then I bought some pretty beads and we are putting a bead in for everything we are thankful for. We have family devotion every Sunday night and we are starting this project this Sunday and will continue it for at least every Sunday in November.
BUT....... this reminded me that I read in a magazine once (I think it was Family Fun) to have a jar somewhere in the house that everyone can access (for instance, in the kitchen) and then all throughout the year everyone can write down fun things they did, something funny that was said or whatever and then on New Years Eve (wow...now I sound the shopping stores, jumping from Halloween to NEW YEARS????!!!!! WOW) you pull the slips of paper out and read them!
The point of this is that I was sort of thinking if we kept a list....or OOO BRAINSTORM... what if we write the things we are thankful for on the slips of paper and filled the vase (instead of pretty beads) and then on Thanksgiving we can read them to each other.....Hmm. This sounds fun!!
