This week for my For Just One Week goal, I'm going to keep a gratitude journal. I got the idea from my friend Rebecca. Thanks Rebecca!
Each day, I'm going to list 5 things I'm grateful for. Simple things, obvious things, not so obvious. I'm sure the lists will reflect the type of day I had. Some days it might be hard to come up with five items. I'm sure others will be really easy. It's my hope that by making a list, I'll be able to find more good in each of my days. Even the bad ones. I want to get into the habit of doing it daily. Did you know that if you listed 5 things you're grateful for each day of the year, you would have a list of 1825 things you are gratful for by the end of the year.

What's on the menu today: Polynesian Meatballs. This is another recipe from the ward cookbook.

I loved Rebecca's talk. I want to do a gratitude journal too. I think it's a great idea.
Did your kids give you Liv's birthday invitation? I gave it to Tyler after school today. We tried to come over a few time today but you weren't home.
Love a gratitude journal. We do it as a family every night at dinner. I'm writing everything down and eating at the same time. The only multi-tasking I can do. :)
Meatballs sound delish...
We had pioneer woman's meatballs tonight in a mashed potato nest. They were divine...
Ohhh, thanks for the sweet shout out, Christa! Don't forget to go back and read it again. It's fun to try to remember why you were grateful for a day with no dog throw up ;) (or without lice LOL)
