Wall of Thanks

Last week we had our family lesson on all of the things we are thankful for. Thanksgiving season always provides a great opportunity to reflect on our blessings. A good friend says that we need to give Thanksgiving it's due! So true! We have much to be thankful for.
We decided this year to create a Wall of Thanks to help us remember many of our blessings.
We made a poster and stuck it on the wall. Then, each person got a pad of sticky notes. They have been writing the things they are thankful for on the note pad and sticking it to the wall.


I was impressed with all of there thoughtful notes on the wall.
Here some of the things they said:
clothes
brothers
shoes
seasons
tigers
books
moonlight
Cassie (grandpa's dog that recently passed away)
stars
friends
mom
Heavenly Father
my self
Italian food (okay, that was mine!)
scriptures
Michael Jordan
a car
dinosaurs
a bed
strawberries
eyes
a handful of thanks for all things Star Wars

I won't write all of them. It is fun to see how they write and try to translate kindergarten spelling! We will keep working on it and see if we can't fill the whole wall and maybe start another. It really shouldn't be that difficult...
