Thankful on Thanksgiving

You bet I'm thankful... for many things. I'm a little late posting, but excuse me I was batteling some streptococcus festering in my throat on Turkey Day. Doing well now, and it was a great holiday. I woke up with my boys and snuggled them tight in my nest, the best. In this house we love breakfast more than any other meal. So we had our Thanksgiving breakfast. I made an egg-sausage-hash brown-cheese casserole with bacon and mini buttermilk pancakes on the side. Yes, it was way too much food, but yes, it was way too much good. I'm still figuring out how to cook for the three of us, but I don't mind... just more left-overs. So while the breakfast smells filled our cozy house we put up our Christmas tree. The boys decorated it- that came with clustered ornament patches on the tree and 13 broken ornaments in the mix. All made with love. So here is my column of "thankfuls" this year:

-my faith
-my handsome, healthy boys
-my health
-my family
-my friends
-my neighbors
-my job
-my home
-the tears
-the laughs
-the lessons
-my dignity
-the living opportunity this year to teach self respect and how to treat a woman and mother to my children
-gaining my self worth
-my values
-my character
-my sillies
-my kind heart
-my serving hands
-me
-the prayers
-the support
-you

Happy Thanksgiving!!
