Thanks giving...

Thanksgiving has become my favorite holiday!! Not only do you get to share yummy food with people you love but you get to be "thankful" (which can be such a novel thought considering how materialistic our society is). Honestly there's just something about the act of celebrating the smallest of our blessings that, for me, makes this holiday outshine Christmas. No kids getting upset about what they did and did not get. No guilt or pressure when it comes to gift buying. Just fellowship and hopefully, if you're lucky, no drama. :) A couple of years back I started my thanksgiving ritual of texting my friends and telling them what I was thankful for. I.e. Buffy I'm thankful for your caring spirit, Nikki you're giving spirit, and Karem your ability to always see the best in me! I'm looking forward again to acknowledging my many blessings. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday. Take some time to appreciate your many blessings..
