RE: The happiness and peace a little rock brings

in #parenting7 years ago

aww I really love this article. Love the example you used about your son lightening up when he expressed gratitude for his mom!

I absolutely agree. I just wrote an article about the power of positivity today. Part of being positive is to have gratitude and be grateful for the things in your life.

Also I love collecting rocks too, I think I'll try attaching meaning to some of my special stones and carry them close to me as a reminder.

Awesome read! :)

Thanks, karensuestudios! It's funny that such a simple thing as thinking of something to be thankful for can make us so much happier!

When my son mentioned the cookies, I almost cracked up. It was not what I had in mind when I thought of gratitude - I was thinking more along the lines of being grateful for good health, having shelter, enough food, etc. I guess kids think differently. Now come to think of it, I'm grateful to be able to eat cookies too!

hahah! Yes... I do love cookies. Can't say your son is wrong at all. :)
