Early parenthood can feel like a blur—days filled with diaper changes, feedings, laundry, and endless to-dos that leave little space to simply pause. By the time the house is finally quiet, we’re often too tired to do anything but scroll through curated feeds of spotless homes, dream vacations, and people who somehow seem to have it all together. It’s no wonder we start to feel like what we have isn’t enough.

This month, we’re challenging that narrative through one simple but powerful practice: gratitude. Each day throughout November, we’ve outlined a small, meaningful way to slow down and take notice of the good that’s already here. Because in a season that so often centers around more, perhaps what we really need is to remember that what (and who) we have is already enough.

Here’s to a month of pursuing gratitude together. May you reach December feeling a little lighter and a lot more thankful. 

Note: If you're joining us sometime mid-month, welcome! Hop on in wherever you're at. It's never too late to start giving thanks.
