We Are Thankful!



We are loving that Hudson is old enough now to have actual conversations about character, giving, loving on others, being thankful, the true meaning of the holidays, etc. We started this week by making an Operation Christmas Child shoebox for a little girl that we ended up having to name "Sarah" because Hudson would not stop asking her name! He did really well for a while at the store as we shopped for her, but he kept picking out things with Lightning McQueen on them, so we helped steer him toward princesses and pink. :) We were very proud of him and it makes our hearts so happy that he has continued to ask about "Sarah"!
We ended our week by making this little guy. We each took a turn to say something/someone we were thankful for and then we came up with some together. It was so sweet to see him excited to share. Our family is very blessed and we want Hudson to know that every good and perfect gift comes from above!
