CONGRATULATIONS MONICA!! YOU ARE THE FIRST ONE IN THE COMMUNITY FROM MINNESOTA. You are also the first one to enter the contest overall – thank you. Since I know that you have one of my books, this will be a great opportunity to show your gratitude with someone by giving IT away to someone you are grateful for.
Thank you… Lucky me, to get and to be afforded to give my very first day…
Looking forward to becoming even more grateful in my life.

Hi Janae,
I joined a few weeks ago…Am I the first one to join from Texas? I want to get copies of the books for my grandchildren and their parents…I would be glad to purchase them and/or pay postage…I am a very grateful & joyful person…I’m hoping to pass that on to my loved ones…
Blessings, Dr. Di
Hi Dr. Diane,
Yes, you are the first one to join from Texas, or at least the first one to let us know so we can reward you for that! For being the first one to join you’ll get a complimentary Little Girl or Little Boy book from me. We’ll follow up with you about purchasing other books, thank you! I love how you want to pass on your joy and gratitude with your loved ones. I suggest that you listen to Annie Zirkel’s interview on instilling gratitude with our children. The free book hasn’t been claimed yet, and this would be a good one to share with your family too. Go to Challenge 3 and select – Thanking Family and Friends. You’ll see Annie’s interview. Listen to that and answer the question by commenting below and you’ll enjoy another book as well!
Blessings to you!

I joined about a month ago and look forward to this movement becoming a huge part of my life. I volunteer a lot and look forward to learning new ways to help those in need! After a life changing life experience of a brain aneurysm, my goals in life have changed and will never go back!!! I am a miracle and appreciate every day that I am here.
Hi Tammy,
Thank YOU for joining our movement. It sounds like YOU are a wonderful example of living gratitude on a daily basis! We could all benefit from your viewpoint of life. Would you be willing to share more of your story with the community?
Here’s to the miracles in our lives!
