During today's Family Home Evening we talked about gratitude. About how we should be grateful for everything Heavenly Father gives us. And not just be glad we have it but to express that gratitude. We went around a few times and let each person say something they were grateful for. The kids' answers were fun. Everything from books and toys to couches and...well...Drake kinda copied the last bit of everything I said. John was, as always, the firm reminder of what's important, citing family members and Jesus Christ.
Afterwards we asked each kid to pick someone that they wanted to say 'thank you' to and write that person a note. We haven't delivered the notes yet (it was time for bed as soon as FHE was over) but are excited to do so tomorrow.
To go with John's wonderful example, here are some pictures of what I'm most grateful for:

Who took these pictures, Anika? They are super cute!
Brinn Willis did!
Your kids are growing up way too fast. They have probably forgotten who we are. We haven't even met the baby!
I hope the preparations for moving day are coming along. I really wish we were there to help you out!
