Thankful

Happy Thanksgiving! I don't have any pictures to go with this post, but I wanted to take a moment to say that I am thankful. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, a time to get together with family and friends and to share a good meal and good conversation and just pause and realize all the wonderful gifts life has given. I am always mindful of how lucky I have things, there are folks that have a much harder life than I do and I often think, "There but for the grace of God go I". I am thankful for my DH, he's a wonderful, wonderful man and my best friend. I love sharing my life with a person who makes me laugh everyday. I'm thankful for Winston, who gives me unconditional love and who is always happy to see me. He also makes me laugh everyday. I'm thankful for my parents and my sister who gave me the things I needed to get going in this crazy life and who are there for me still when I need support today. I'm thankful for my beautiful nephews, A-star and K-man who are also a lot of fun. I'm thankful for my extended family in its many different locations on the globe for being a part of my life. And I'm thankful for my friends. I've been so lucky to be blessed with a number of amazing, talented, generous, funny, and kind people. My life has been touched by many people who have taught me so many things. I'm just a lucky girl.

I hope this holiday gives you an opportunity to see all the gifts life has brought to you and the chance to pause a moment and say thanks.
