It's hard to clap when your own hands are empty.
We talk about teaching our kids gratitude, but maybe the deeper lesson is teaching them to genuinely celebrate when someone else wins : even when we didn't.
When your sibling gets the grade you wanted.
When a friend makes the team and you didn't.
When someone else's child achieves something yours is still waiting for.
These are the moments that shape a heart.
The world says: compare, compete, protect your spot.
Scripture says: "Rejoice with those who rejoice." (Romans 12:15)
Learning to celebrate others doesn't come naturally : it comes practiced. Around the dinner table. In the car. In the small moments of everyday life.
We're not raising competitors. We're raising a community.
Who can your family intentionally celebrate this week?
