So much to be thankful for!

Our family does a simple “thankful wall” with butcher paper taped to the wall in November. We each jot down something we’re thankful for at dinner. I love how it teaches us to pay attention throughout the day. And, of course, I love the insight to what my four-year-old is thankful for.

I really enjoyed the Chesterton quote. Thank you!

I love that tradition! We used to do something similar, only writing it directly on a pumpkin that then becomes our table centerpiece on Thanksgiving day. It's a great practice.

I find myself giddy to read “5 quick things” each week because it gives me so much to ponder... until the next week! Thanks, Tsh! I’m grateful for your yes.

If I had to choose one of my many Substack subscriptions to keep... I think I'd have to choose yours :) It's been a balm for me on a hard weekend with sick husband and kids and missing Liturgy. Thank you as always!
