Collect moments not things {Raising Grateful Kids}

I saw this quote the other day  "Collect moments, not things" and it really resonated with me. As an adult I don't remember all the toys I had growing up, but I do remember the moments spent with my family and friends. Those memories are what I cherish the most, even the smallest moments like riding bikes and eating popsicles. That's what I want my kids to remember...the moments... not things that they had.

Pre-Order Raising Grateful Kids in an Entitled World

I am very excited to be on the launch team for this book. Like Kristen I want to raise grateful kids above anything else. As parents it starts with us, they aren't born with entitlement, they learned it from us.

 “I don’t always know how to combat the struggle against entitlement in my life or home, but I need to try. Entitlement didn’t start with my kids. It began with me. I entitled them because I was entitled.

And as uncomfortable as it sounds, parents who want less-entitled kids have to be less entitled themselves, and parents who want to raise more grateful kids need to start by living more grateful lives."
