So Many Things to be Thankful For!

As many of us will gather with family, friends, and loved ones this holiday, lets not forget all that we have to be thankful for this year! While in the grocery store earlier this week, I ran into an old friend that I hadn't seen since I was probably about 10 years old. We got to talking and filling each other in on what we had been doing for the past several years and how our lives are going, etc. Well, while talking to her, I realized just how much we tend to "lose touch" with friends we've had throughout our lives. And while standing there, I started to realize how thankful I was that I just happened to be in that store at that time...maybe it was fate...who knows.

So many of us have a lot of things to be thankful for this holiday, whether it's a new job or an addition to the family. And sometimes we get so caught up in making the house look good for get togethers, worrying that there isn't enough stuffing for all 40 relatives, or how you're going to squeeze all 40 relatives into your living room. But lets not forget what Thanksgiving truly means and about the ones who can't be with family and friends for this season. I know I have a lot to be thankful for this year and I invite you to share what you have to be thankful for as well!

I want to wish everyone a safe and Happy Thanksgiving! -CANDY
