The Mother's Gratitude Journal is a guided journal moms can use to reflect on ordinary days and extraordinary moments using approachable, thought-provoking prompts. Capture the essence of the season you're in, while infusing those long days with a bit of celebration for yourself--and gratitude for the opportunity to experience it all. Created by Meagan Francis and Sarah Powers, co-hosts of The Mom Hour podcast, this journal will inspire moms to not only record memories but also reflect on what these intense days, weeks, months, and years of motherhood mean to us.
