Advent Day 8 - Gratitude

Wake up song:
Count your Blessings Instead of Sheep


Pocket Paper:
God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say "thank you?" ~William A. Ward

Make a Christmas Card and write a Thank You note in it for one of your teachers.

Using the same treasures as we used to make ornaments, we made Christmas cards with thank you notes in them for our teachers. Most of the kids ended up making two or three to cover all of their favorite teachers. Camilla even made one for her mom and dad. It was sweet to watch them as they wrote notes of thanks to people who devote their time to helping them learn. Gratitude is such a holiday feeling.
