Thankful Thursday: Blessings

It’s Thankful Thursday again!
Ever since I was small we have been taught by not only our teachers, but also by our parents, that we should always be thankul for everything that happens. It might seem insignificant to others, but being thankful is a great act.
Yesterday I got something from the mail (yeah, the SNAIL mail! lol) and that’s it below:

Actually, I was thinking it would be those “babies”, but it looks like it was another surprise: my Dove Gift Pack!
Another great thing that happened this week was that my son got some perfect scores in their unit tests! I have slowly been trying to let him study on his own (he’s now 8years old) these days so that he will develop the habit of studying by himself, and not wait for me to prod him all the time!
And last, but not the least: I have been feeling much better these days again! ![]()
I guess all those happenings during the past month has been kind of taxing for me; but am so glad that lately I have been feeling like myself again.
So great to be alive and thankful!

Yes, I too am grateful to be alive
What a awesome package from Dove. Did you get it from them directly?
How cool that your son is starting to study on his own. It is so neat to see the children grow up.
Thank you so much for sharing your grateful heart with us - the small and big things…
Be blessed today and always.

It’s nice to hear you had such a nice day!
I hope things will also work just as smooth for you tomorrow!
Congratulations to your son too! It seems he’s making his first steps into a successful life!
P.S. How’s that Dove Gift Pack? And do you happen to know how can I get one of those for my sister?

Oh wow. Cool package. I heart DOVE products -but I rarely buy them coz (aside from me being into…heheh) my cousin sends some our way - as pasalubong-always.
Great progress with your son. I hope when Matt goes to school, he’ll do good like yours. And great that you had rest. It does wonders to the body.
