Gratitude

In my family, Thanksgiving is a favorite holiday. When I think about why that is, it’s not about yummy food or holiday hooplah, it’s about the simplicity in how my family celebrates. For us, this is a time to slow down, come together, and take a moment to be grateful for life’s many blessings. Every year, there seem to be more reasons to be thankful. Over the last few years, the reasons to be grateful keep multiplying, especially here at GUS.

Gratitude, For More Than Just the Holidays

“What are you grateful for?,” I ask a group of third graders. “My family!” “For friends!” “For my dog!” Three children loudly and joyfully respond. During this season of thanks, many of us take time to ponder not only what we are thankful for, but also, what role gratitude plays in our lives.
