Attitude of Gratitude

This is one of those posts I wish I'd written myself, but alas, I can't claim any credit whatsoever.  I read Jim Higley's post, "Living Life With a Sense of Awe," this morning and loved it, so I had to share it with you.

It's so true that anyone can teach kids how to say rote things, like "thank you," but imparting the meaning behind the words is another story. We do need to cultivate in our children - and ourselves - an attitude of gratitude that goes beyond mere good manners. This is worth a read.

Please check out the post and also Mr. Higley's blog, Bobblehead Dad.
