Activity
Take some time reading back through the items on your family’s Thankfulness Calendar. In what ways did reflecting on what God has given you increase your willingness to joyfully share with others? Did this activity help you cultivate a thankful heart for all the ways, no matter how seemingly big or small, God has generously given to you? How can you continue this practice as a family?
