Cute idea for Valentine's Day

What a darling idea!

BEEP BEEP! 🤣 Definitely saving this idea:

When our children are responding to something with disappointment, it does not make them ungrateful. It makes them disappointed. Gratitude is not the opposite of disappointed.

It is rather a practice of paying attention that leads someone to recognizing joy and focusing on absorbing that joy and sitting in it for as long as possible.

Pretending to always be thankful is a form of toxic positivity and we force that upon our children when we tell them that they should be grateful, or thankful or happy for something that isn't actually triggering gratitude in them.

If our goal is to teach gratitude than our mission is to model it. To move through the world as present as possible, noticing the lovely things and expressing our delight in them outwardly and authentically with our kids.

The more we practice gratitude, the more likely they are to want to jump on that train and ride it right alongside us.

Such a cute idea! Saving this for February ❤
