I have seen many people on social media list something every day that they are grateful for and thought I would join in and have on my private Facebook account every day and I thought I would share here too.
I did this for the whole of last year and it has really made me realise that even on the bad day's I have something to be grateful for.

What were you grateful for in July?
It was lovely to read your list. I think it's a very good idea to think of the little things that make your life better, as we tend to focus so much on the negative aspects. xx
ReplyDeleteSO many wonderful things to be grateful for! I was grateful that we had such nice weather on all the days we had plans and that Alec loved both colleges we went to check out.
ReplyDeleteOh Wow! July really was your month. So many lovely things to be grateful for.
ReplyDeleteEllie having a fab prom, yummy food and lots of family time! Perfect. xx
