Thanksgiving Thoughts

I have been feeling very blessed the past few weeks and am so thankful for so many things. The bigger obvious ones are my family, my faith, this country, my freedom, my friends, but beyond those there are the little things that I take for granted that I am soooo grateful for.... running water, hot water, washing machines, a yard, cell phones, medicine, doctors, cars, lower gas prices, computers, the internet, DVR, cozy beds, electricity, heat, a semi-clean house, disinfectant cleaners, stores, etc. etc.. I know those are just conveniences that make life easier and better which is why I am thankful for them, but the truth is the things that really keep me going are the daily giggles, sincere notes, hugs, kisses, and unconditional love I recieve from my four little ones [and Nate, minus the notes and giggling.... he doesn't do that daily].

Happy Thanksgiving!
