Day 1 - I am so grateful for each and every one of my readers. For each day I am given the opportunity to uplift, spread joy, and encourage someone.  Thank you Lord for letting me be a vessel everyday.  As God pours into my soul I am able to pour out to you. #21DaysGratitude

How to join in the fun! Nov 1st -21st

1. Let others know about the 21 Days of Gratitude Challenge for the Whole Family and use the hashtag #21DaysGratitude. Our hope is that it’s contagious and 1000′s of families join in so help us get the word out. In the midst of our busyness it’s easy to forget to pause and be thankful. Sometimes we are in the midst of difficult circumstances and we struggle with being thankful and that’s when we need thanksgiving to intervene.

2. Stop, reflect and engage in a moment of thankfulness each day this month, with your family. It can be big or small moments of gratitude.

3. Share your moment on your blog with a photo, on facebook, twitter, pinterest or your preferred social network. If you’re doing this as a family let your kids snap a photo of something they are thankful for. It can be as simple as a taking a picture of a note written on a napkin that says “I am thankful I get to hold these little pudgy fingers”. You can journal it or do a service project. Make it simple or get as creative as you like.

4. Don’t worry if you are getting a late start or if you skipped a day. Just jump in and follow along.
