Grow: Daily Thankfulness Calendar

Last week, I was having a bad day, but I decided to focus on my blessings and that made all the difference.

This week, I'm still focused on my blessings, and I've got a neat way to help you keep track of them.

I have often tried keeping a log of what I am thankful for. But, I just haven't been able to keep up with it, and I honestly never looked back at the things I was thankful for like I had planned.

But then I saw this idea on Pinterest for a calendar using index cards, where you write one line of what happened that day. And then the next year, you write a line under that with what happened that day.

So I modified that, and instead of just things that happened that day, I wanted to focus on a thing I was thankful for.

So for yesterday...

And for today...

And in case you couldn't read that...

Yes! Mark it down, people. My son went pee-pee in his potty! I am thrilled. You just don't know.

And I look forward to filling in the other days and years. How exciting will it be to be able to look back at years of things I was thankful for on that particular day. I am stoked.

I made the little box that I put the index cards in out of a sheet of cardstock. If there is interest, I'll share how I did it. As well as the labels for each day. Just let me know. I like to share. :)

What are you thankful for today?
