Thankful for........

Thankful For:

My husband, my kids

My brothers, their families.

My friends, their families.

My health, my home.

My simple life.

My pets.

My God

My childhood.

My gifts and talents.

My desire to try new things.

My willingness to live and let live.

My ability to let go.

This Thanksgiving is a tough one.  Robby and I are by ourselves and he is sick.

The past two Thanksgivings were so wonderful, spending it with my 

brothers, their families and my dad, that it makes this one 

so much more difficult.

Every year it seems the Holidays are a little less Holiday-ish than they

use to be.  

I guess this just happens as life goes on.

But, in spite of it all,

I have so many blessings in my life.

And since my mantra is now, 

Choose Happiness,

I will be happy today for the things I have,

the things I am thankful for.

This will be enough,

as it is much more than many people have.

I miss my mom and dad,

I miss talking to them 

and 

especially on the Holidays.

But I am thankful.

Happy Thanksgiving and remember to find something to be thankful for.
