A post I thought was appropriate on this Thanksgiving Monday. Gratitude isn’t just about the manners we were taught as kids, it’s essential for our wellness. Showing gratitude is good for us emotionally, mentally, and physically. Like any skill,
It’s one we can practice and strengthen. Can’t think of anything to be grateful for? Start with the small stuff, grateful for the technology to be on Instagram? Grateful you had clothes to wear or food to eat? Grateful you were able to get out of bed today? It can be anything! I’m grateful to you for taking the time to read this post! Thank you!

🌻 Supporting Our Kids (and Ourselves) Through the Teacher Strike 🌻

It’s natural that many parents in Alberta are feeling anxious right now. For some, the teacher strike brings back tough memories of trying to teach our kids at home during the Covid lockdowns. But while those feelings are valid, it’s also important to remember: this situation is not the same as Covid.

✨ What’s Different This Time
• Schools are not shut down because of a global crisis—we’re navigating a labour dispute.
• Kids are not isolated in the same way they were during lockdowns—they still have access to friends, activities, and their community.
• We now know how important structure, routines, and connection are for children’s well-being.

✨ What We Learned from Covid That Can Help Now
• Keep a routine: A simple daily schedule helps kids feel secure.
• Focus on connection, not perfection: Your child doesn’t need you to replace a teacher—they need you to be their parent.
• Use community resources: Libraries, recreation centres, and online programs can help fill in the gaps.
• Check in on emotions: Validate their worries and model healthy coping strategies.

✨ For Parents
• Give yourself grace. Supporting your child doesn’t mean recreating a classroom at home.
• Reach out—this is a time for community, not isolation.
• Remember: this is temporary. Kids are resilient, and with connection and stability, they will continue to grow and thrive.

💛 Above all, we can use this moment not just to get through, but to show our kids how families and communities adapt, pull together, and support one another.

We are offering small symbols of remembrance to anyone who would like one — shared as a way to reflect, honor, and carry forward the meaning of this day.
