Dear Families,
November is often a time we stop and reflect on all the things we have to be grateful for in our lives. Did you know gratitude can improve your quality of life?
Here are just a few fun scientific facts about gratitude:
- Gratitude can improve your sleep!
- Gratitude can lower your cholesterol!
- Grateful people spend more time exercising!
We encourage you to make time this month to reflect as a family all the things you are each grateful for in your lives. You might start a gratitude journal that you each write in every week and make time to read the journal together as a family or go on a gratitude walk and share as a family what makes you thankful.
Our PEaCE team would like to thank each of you for all the hard work you do every single day. You are your child's first teacher and our most important partner. We appreciate you taking the time to read our newsletter and hope you find the resources we share to be useful.
We would love to hear your feedback and suggestions for future newsletters.
If you are an Irving business owner or operator and would like to see how we can work together, please reach out to our Team!
We are here for you!

We will have prizes, food, laughs, and special treats for each meeting time. Childcare is also provided.
Each session will have a new topic and there will be plenty of interaction, guest speakers, and fun to be had.
We want to take the time to celebrate our unique Irving parents, get to know each other, and re-connect with each other after too much time apart.
