I Am Thankful…

…for crisp autumn days.

…for the first snowflakes of winter.

…for a husband who loves me faithfully.

…for children who are beautiful, intelligent and, most of all, healthy.

…for the moms, dads, sons and daughters who are fighting in a war that needs to end.

…for the moms, dads, sons and daughter who have children or parents who are fighting a war that needs to end.

…for family and friends who love me for who I am.

…for food on the table and a roof over my head.

…for my strengths and my weaknesses.

…for all of you.

Happy Thanksgiving.

    Happy Thanksgiving, Shelli!

    That’s a wonderful list! I wouldn’t change a thing. Well.. I wish I could change the husband part, but it’s a little late in the game for that. I love having sole possession of the remote control. :))
