One of my goals this year is to cultivate a heart of gratitude in every situation. This seemed like a great place to start. The author wrote one thank you card each week for a year. She set out themes for the month like career, mentors, travel, health, etc. I loved hearing the tangible ways that writing the cards influenced how she thought about past events. I also loved that her focus on gratitude had a huge impact on her young kids.

DogMomIrene This sounds really good. When I was teaching, there were 2 years where I would send 2-3 postcards a week to students. Just positive messages about their performance or a kind deed I saw them doing, anything good. It definitely made those years more memorable for me. 3mo
AvidReader25 @DogMomIrene what a beautiful thing to do! You have no idea the impact you probably had on those kids. 💙 3mo
DogMomIrene @AvidReader25 Aww, thank you! My library doesn‘t have this book, yet. I clicked the Libby tag to notify me when it comes in. Sending thanks into the world just seems like such a positive force. 3mo
AvidReader25 @DogMomIrene I agree! A good way to head into a new year. 3mo

Sorry for the delay to say thank you to everyone who wrote me a message🥰I arrived so late.

The performance of Viola Davis and Thuso Mbedu were spectacular. I ate, too much😳Need to run a marathon or do an Ironman to burn those calories🤣Almost chocked with an m&m😱But I, still here
