This thing was so silly and shiny and sparkly, it made me giggle. I didn&#8217;t know what I would do with it until I read through some of the merit badges and saw the part about keeping a gratitude journal for the Farmgirl Gratitude badge. How perfect!! I was not in a position to purchase <em>The Book of Awesome<\/em>, but I did read a lot of entries from the Amazon site, and I read from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.1000awesomethings.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.1000awesomethings.com<\/a> when I ran out of things to read from my first source.<\/p>\n<p>On the day I started working on this badge, our oldest dog, Dakota (our practice kid right after we got married), passed away. Although heartbreaking, I was able to find a gift in that he went peacefully in his sleep with no suffering. Just last week, my purse was stolen while shopping with the kids, and I was yet again able to find the gifts and lessons in that less-than-positive experience. I think actively focusing on gratitude really helped me through both scenarios and then some.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image aligncenter size-full wp-image-53419\" src=\"http:\/\/www.raisingjane.org\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/photo-7.jpg\" alt=\"photo (7)\" width=\"322\" height=\"432\" \/>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome New Sisters!
