What are you thankful for?

It is that time of the year when we slow down to think about what we are truly thankful for…I am always most thankful for healthy children. There is nothing more challenging than having a child that is ill. I am extremely thankful for small illnesses to remind us how wonderful it is to have children that are not tied down to daily medicines, machines, or fears of what today might bring. I am also thankful for family and how wonderful it is to have been blessed with unconditional love. Even when some of that dear family has left this earth, it reminds us of how lucky were are to have felt such love. We are making a “game” to play over Thanksgiving with your family or friends that might be visiting over the holidays. Please remember to share how thankful you are to have your fabulous children. They are healthy, smart, kind, quick witted, thoughtful, entertaining, and so very talented. I know I do not need to remind you to be thankful for these little people, but sometimes we do not let them in on how thankful we really are!
