[quote=Anonymous]My 9yo is generally happy with her life but does have her moments. At dinnertime or bedtime we talk about our high, low and thankful for the day. You have to have a high and a thankful. You don’t have to have a low. One day I said I was thankful we have a yard with a tree in it so we could watch the birds on our birdfeeder. This started a conversation about how not everyone had a yard and some people live in apartments. Another time, it was hot and I said my thankful was having AC. This started a conversation on how not everyone had AC etc. Even your 4yo can join in with this. Your DD could say her low is that she didn’t get to stir the oatmeal or whatever she feels her low is for the day…. She gets to verbalize it but also had to think of a high and thankful. It may make them all more appreciative. [/quote]
