One day, Emma's mom asked her to help water the plants. Emma was happy to help.


As they watered, Emma's mom asked, "What are you thankful for in our garden?"


Emma thought for a moment and said, "I'm thankful for the flowers that make me happy, the vegetables that give us food, and the birds that sing sweet songs."


Emma's mom smiled and said, "That's wonderful, Emma! Let's make a gratitude garden to remember all the things we're thankful for."
