At a time when we are to be thankful, I'm finding myself feeling like the work I do is thankless. And I wonder if you feel the same. I imagine you do. It is rare to have the littles you lead and love thank you for the tireless work you do, especially this time of year. Maybe in Christmas wishes, Valentine cards, and end-of-year appreciation gifts, but at Thanksgiving? Nah, they are frustrated, just like you. They need a break, just like you. They find it hard to feel motivated, just like you. So take a deep breath with me, Leaders. Let's press on together. When it is time to rest, make sure you rest. That way when your energy is needed, you have it. May we never tire of doing what is good and right before our Lord because in His season we shall bring in a great harvest if we can just persist.  Galatians 6:9 (VOICE) Resources to Support You in Your December Journey: December 2025 Ideas for  Every  Day Calendar  (family friendly, educational)  December 2025 Grow...

Every November we're challenged to focus living with an attitude of gratitude. Science supports it, and Jesus preached it. Gratitude transforms our thinking.  I wonder if we might employ this in the classroom, and perhaps you already do. When the mood gets dreary, work together to make a quick gratitude list. Or have a gratitude jar. Here, classmates deposit thankful statements. Pull one to read whenever your room needs a gratitude lift. How do you practice gratitude in your classroom?
