We learned about how Jesus healed 10 Leapers, but only one came back to thank Jesus. Jesus wondered why, if he had healed 10 men, only one had come back to thank him.
So, who do we need to thank? As a family, make a list of a few people who deserve a "Thanks A Lot" from you, and have your child(ren) help write thank you notes to those people. Can't think of anyone? Start with the mailman, the garbage man, or anyone else who serves your neighborhood in some way. What about your child's teacher or coach? I'm sure you could come up with a great list around the dinner table of all the people that serve your family in one way or another!
As a parent, let your child(ren) see you expressing your thanks to people this month- seeing gratitude in action is the best way for your child to learn how to truly be grateful and how to express that to others!
Take time this month as a family to just say "thank you"!

I just discovered this website -- where have I been? Anyway...will the kids weekly lessons be uploaded here all the time? I notice one from nov. but nothing more current. Just curious? Also, if you need someone to help enter them, I may be able to help.
