As I was cleaning my office and going through papers - I came across little packet of things to do with your family. I love it when I ponder on things at just the right time. I thought this would be really useful lately to create some meaningful time as a family. I have been wanting to instill more activities and ways of creating deeper relationships with one another in our family.
I hope to share several of the ideas with you over the next few weeks.

ALPHABET OF THANKFULNESS
Read 1 Thessalonians 5:18 as a family, and then play a fun twist on the alphabet game. Starting with the letter A, think of one specific reason to be thankful and continue around the family until the entire alphabet has been used. Write each reason on a huge piece of butcher paper and hang it in a prominent place in your house where everyone can be reminded of what to be thankful for. This is especially good for those nonthankful days all smaller children have at one time or another.
I am looking forward to doing this with the kids, TONIGHT! :) thanks for the great, easy, blessed idea!
