Today I am thankful for ...my beautiful and healthy children ...my patient husband ...my family, all of whom are here now ...the more food than we need today ...that I can provide my children with all they need and most of what they want ...our house that shelters us and is also a home (of just the right size) ...that I can reach out and find friendship, support, and caring when I need it That last one includes you. Thanks for taking the time to read this blog, comment to me, and share. Thanks also to you who write, too. A little Natalie Merchant (Kind and Generous) for you... Have a really happy Thanksgiving! (And if it isn't Thanksgiving for you...have a really happy day.) (Believe it or not...this is a Thursday Thirteen .)
