November 8 – Photo of the Day = Gratitude

 

 I am grateful for children. Their innocence, energy, unconditional love, and belief in the impossible capture me and remind me of the potential surrounding me.

“But momma! I DO need this box! It’s the figurehead for my pirate ship’s prow.” Prow? Figureghead? Where does a child learn such stuff?

 ”Yes, I forgive you, momma. It’s okay that you yelled at me.” It was the 10th time I let MY impatience get the best of me. Such opportunities are teaching moments for me. Often I am reminded of how God loves – unconditionally.

And sometimes they remind me of the potential IN me.

What have you learned from children lately? Why are you grateful for them?
