Thanksgiving 2009

What I’m thankful for....

Jason’s job that has survived three rounds of layoffs over the last year.

My friends who always see the good in me, even when it isn’t showing, and always find the time to laugh with me.

Three children who are healthy, do well at school and are simply nice people (most of the time).

My father and father-in-law who made it through the year after being faced with too many health challenges.

The last eight years I have had living down the street from my parents, a true gift as my babies have grown up.

My mom who spends more hours than can be counted supporting her five kids, four kids-in-law and ten grandchildren with phone calls, cards, emails and visits.

Finally, a best friend and husband who laughs at me and with me, and never seems to tire of me.
