So this week at the company I work for it is Spirit Week. It’s that time of the year where our students, parents and teachers take some time to do a bunch of different things to show their spirit for the online school! So I am going to play along – but switch it up a bit to suit my life:

Today was Appreciations and Inspirations – it’s the day to show your appreciation for anyone in your life
and also to share favorite inspirational quote!

So here goes:

1. I appreciate my kids every day. They see the world in such simple and honest ways. It helps me remember to do the same!

2. I am inspired by the great women I hang out with each bootcamp morning. They inspire me to try harder, to push harder, and to have fun!

3. I appreciate that my family is healthy. After the past few years, that is no small feat!

4. I appreciate that Scotty is here and still has the same wonderful outlook on life. As much as it drives me crazy at times, I do appreciate that he really looks at the world in such an optimistic way. It has taught me so much!

And my all time favorite quote that inspires me is:

Be the Change You Wish to See in the World. – Ghandi

Play along if you like…

Tomorrow’s theme is:

Pay It Forward Day. Here are some ideas:

* Get radical and commit a random act of kindness.
* Take your extra coats and mittens to the nearest homeless shelter. Write a letter to a shut-in.
* Reflect and consider how you can connect with and help your fellow human beings.

No idea is a bad idea – give it a try!
