Today’s Gratitude Activity

We have been enjoying all of the wonderful things to come out of our Gratitude Activity Jar! So far some of the activities we have done include: donated Jared Boxes to the hospital, invited a friend over to play, and visited the library. We are loving this little jar, and have even added more cards into the mix.

Today, Emily picked the Pie card, which meant it was time to bake a pie for a neighbor. I’m not much of a baker, but I think together we managed to do okay with this one.


We decided to make an organic pumpkin pie. Not exactly from scratch, mind you…. but a pie nonetheless!


I think our neighbor was very surprised! I know I would love to come home to freshly baked pie, and ours was still warm from the oven.
Then we started to prepare for tomorrow’s activity. It involves being grateful for flowers. If you’re in need of a mood lift, try visiting your local plant nursery. It felt so nice to surround ourselves in all the greenery and brightly colored flowers!
Emily fell in love with this wee little plant.
The colors were amazing!


So much fun, and we have much to be grateful for indeed.
