thankful paper leaves


it's been kind of a tradition to give thanks and pray for certain people throughout the month of november. the list includes family members, extended family, friends, church, etc.

usually, we pick one person or family and we pray for them at dinner time.

last year, i make the a "thankful tree" that held all of the names of the people we were praying for.

this year, i cut out leaf shapes from pages of an old book and wrote the names of the people we were praying for on them.



30 days of giving thanks
