be grateful for anything. Second, I ask, “Hayden, what did you love about yourself today?” I ask him to talk about something he did. Maybe it was an act of kindness—he helped another kid at school. Or a demonstration of intelligence—something he figured out or something smart that he said. Maybe it was being helpful—the way he took care of his baby sister. If he can’t think of anything, then I tell him something I love about him.
