I AM BLESSED

Having a house full of grandchildren running around, toys scattered every where, preparing "favorite" foods for those you don't see often are just some of the reasons that I am so happy. Sure there will be many more people at my house on Thanksgiving day than I have places for them to sit doesn't bother me. We are family! I'm so thankful each time I hear one of my children say that they love Thanksgiving because the whole family is together. (They mean all 42 who will be there on Thursday). There will be so much food but the main thing they love is the fact that we as a family are together this one time each year. I am indeed blessed and I am most thankful for all that God has given me. I want each of you (my new blogging friends) to know that I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I probably won't be posting again until the weekend but you know why. HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Sue, isn't it wonderful to have your house packed to the seams with family? I love those special times with good company, good fellowship, and of course, you can't forget the good food. May you and your family have a blessed Thanksgiving.

Wow! what a crowd... you really are blessed. Hopefully you are only doing part of the cooking and letting everyone else help in the clean up.

Happy Thanksgiving!
