Thanksgiving is past, December is here, and, for those who observe it, today is the first Sunday of Advent. This is bound to be a busy month for many of us, full of holiday parties, shopping, travel, time with family and friends, celebration… yet in the midst of all the seasonal frenzy, I still plan to carve out this little bit of time each week in my corner of the internet to focus on gratitude.
I invite you to join me!
(If you’d like a bit of background on why I started the Gratitude Linkup, check out this post.)
