Each week here at Catholicmom.com, we try to come up with a new way to express our gratitude for the many blessings held in each day. This week, I thought we’d try examining each day for something to celebrate. So here are some of the blessings of my past week: Thursday:  Took the day off to care for one of my kids. Friday: Saw my third son’s play. Saturday: Youngest boy received First Communion. Sunday: We had a track meet and spent the day talking about *Infinity Wars*. Monday: Worked on Confirmation project. Tuesday: Third son received Confirmation today. Wednesday: Daughter honored at a Character Counts Day. And we’re back at Thursday … and that little highlights list doesn’t get to everything that happened, that needed prayers either in petition or thanks, and makes me grateful once again for the weekly reminder to count the blessings, or at least begin to. Hope your week was full of blessings, counted and otherwise. Have a great Small Success Thursday! ### **What small successes are you celebrating this week?** --- *Copyright 2018 Sherry Antonetti* ### Share this article [![Share on Facebook](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/facebook-24x24.png)](http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2F2018%2F05%2F03%2Fsmall-success-celebrating-each-day%2F%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dfacebook) [![Share on Twitter](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/twitter-24x24.png)](https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?original_referer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2F2018%2F05%2F03%2Fsmall-success-celebrating-each-day%2F%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2F2018%2F05%2F03%2Fsmall-success-celebrating-each-day%2F%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Dtwitter&source=tweetbutton&text=Small%20Success%3A%20Celebrating%20Each%20Day) [![Share on Email](https://static.hubspot.com/final/img/common/icons/social/email-24x24.png)](mailto:?subject=Check%20out%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2F2018%2F05%2F03%2Fsmall-success-celebrating-each-day%2F%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail%20&body=Check%20out%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.catholicmom.com%2Farticles%2F2018%2F05%2F03%2Fsmall-success-celebrating-each-day%2F%3Futm_medium%3Dsocial%26utm_source%3Demail) ** #### About the Author ![Sherry Antonetti](https://www.catholicmom.com/hubfs/Sherry%20Antonetti.jpg) ### [Sherry Antonetti](https://www.catholicmom.com/articles/author/sherry-antonetti) Sherry Antonetti is a freelance writer, high school teacher and a blogger at Patheos.
