I have a confession to make...I slept through about 95% of the Saturday morning session of General Conference (to watch, listen, read or download all of the talks click here). And because of this, I didn't really catch all of President Monson's excellent talk on gratitude. I remedied this tonight as we watched the talk for Family Home Evening. It reminded me of how much I have to be grateful for, despite the difficulties that I have experienced in my life. Last fall I wrote a weekly post about things I was thankful for (remember Thankful Thursday?). At FHE I challenged the kids to take time each day this month to write down something they are grateful for. I will be writing my list here on my blog.
So for day 1, I am thankful for my friend Lisa who did a small act of kindness today that means so much to me. She brought me flowers and a kind note on a day that could have been very difficult (but surprisingly wasn't).
