Dear Parents,
This month, we are highlighting a special virtue that we believe can truly shape the character of our children as well as ourselves.
Gratitude is like a secret spice for happiness. It is the ability to pause, reflect, and recognize the goodness in our lives—whether it’s something big or small. It’s not about always getting what we want, but about appreciating what we already have. “To be grateful is to recognize the love God has for us” ~ Saint Josemaria Escriva.
Gratitude is like planting seeds of positivity. When we water those seeds with daily acts of appreciation, they grow into stronger relationships, better mental health, and a more joyful life. And as parents, the best part? We get to help our children plant those seeds too!
It is more than just a virtue; it is a way of life. In this fast-paced world, where it is easy to focus on what we don’t have, let us teach our children to pause, reflect, and be thankful for what they do have.
Happy new month!
Warm regards,
