This is a day that I so miss those not with us, my parents, my grandparents, Scott's Mom,..... but I can not help but me thankful for all the blessings that have been bestowed on me. The love of God our Father, who is there through it all: my husband, who is my friend and confidant: my 3 older sons who are maturing into men that I am sooo proud of:, the girls in their lives, who have added more happiness into our lives; my sweet Sierra who has filled my days with the most unimaginable joy; my brother and sister, who are the 2 people I can count on for ANYTHING; Scotts family who has become so much more than "in-laws";friends who really know the meaning of friendship; an employer who has let me take a 2 year leave of absence and has given me my old job back(come January); health insurance which right now is still good with very little cost to us; continued good health for Sierra; a roof over our heads; enough food to eat; a free preschool program for Sierra; and a country where men and women are willing to risk their lives, to save it all for us!!
Happy Thanksgiving to you all and I hope your lives are filled with abundant joy!
Happy Thanksgiving to your family Kathie! Congrats on all of your news too!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful post. I just love hearing all the things that you're grateful for.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving to you and your precious family! I, too, really miss my mother and grandparents this time of year, but like you I focus on how abundantly blessed I am with my husband and children and family and friends.
How wonderful for Sierra to grow up with such special memories of her first Thanksgivings. I hope you have a very blessed holiday season with those you love.
Blessings,
Kathie
Kathie, I love the pic you chose too! I lost your e-mail address and would like to talk to you about our Sierra. Could you please e-mail me?
