BY MELANIE
APRIL 29, 20190

A story told by President Uchtdorf in October 2015 that tells of a child who spends the summer with her Great-Aunt Rose. The child marvels at how happy her aunt always is and ends up learning a valuable lesson about gratitude. Also included below is a fun game that teaches the principle of gratitude using colorful and delicious M&Ms.


STORY

“There is enough that doesn’t go right in life, so anyone can work themselves into a puddle of pessimism and a mess of melancholy. But I know people who, even when things don’t work out, focus on the wonders and miracles of life. These folks are the happiest people I know.”

                                                                        -Great-Aunt Rose
