It's morning

Since January 1, my three year old has been amazed every time she walks into the kitchen and sees light filtering through the windows.

"Look Mum! Wow, the light! It's morning!!"

Whether there be sunshine or an overcast sky, she sees the light of a new day. And wants to celebrate it.

I love that the lessons I most need often come from my little girl.

She has reminded me of a beautiful affirmation I used to begin my days with: Today is a wonder-filled day.

I said it silently, letting the words roll around in my head the moment I woke. Repeating them, and always thinking them with gratitude. Giving thanks for a new day, for the wonder that would be coming our way.

Somehow, slowly, I let it go. But I know slowly {with gentle practice} it will come back to being a natural and effortless part of my morning. Starting today.

Do you have a morning affirmation? And what are you most grateful for today?
