There’s something about summertime that reminds us to slow down and soak in the goodness around us—sunny days, shared meals, neighborhood laughter, and the sweet scent of possibility. That’s why each week in July, I’m celebrating the season with a gentle reflection I call Thankful Thursday.
This week’s focus is all about the summer traditions that bring us joy and connection. Whether you’re into fireworks, family barbecues, beach days, or sunset walks—let’s take a moment to reflect on what we’re thankful for this season.

Thankful Thursday – Week 6: Summer Traditions

Gratitude makes the sweet moments even sweeter

Being thankful allows you to see the silver lining.

Gratitude doesn’t have to be grand—it just has to be genuine. By pausing each week to notice what we’re thankful for, we’re creating space for more joy, more presence, and more connection. I hope this week’s prompt gave you a chance to breathe in the good and maybe even smile at a sweet summer memory.
Join me again next Thursday for another peaceful moment of gratitude. Until then, keep looking for the little things to be thankful for—they often turn out to be the big things. 💛
