I am thankful for having a most understanding, loving and compassionate husband. When I met him 9 years ago I had no way of knowing that we would marry and he would help bring up my two younger children. He has always been there for all my children, a shoulder to lean on, helping the two younger ones go to college, helping them establish their lives. He does these things daily and is helping with the care of his 97 year old grandmother. I couldn't have asked for a better person to share my life with.
I am thankful for all three of my children. Each one is so unique and special in their own way. They have grown into hard-working and responsible adults. I am so very lucky in that they all live close by. They all look out for one another and would do anything for each other.
I am so very fortunate in having a nice, warm home to live in. I am fortunate in that my sister Margaret is nearby and that I have two wonderful nieces to take shopping!! I am so thankful for my dear mother. She has always given so unselfishly of herself to any and all. She has had major health issues and personal issues in the past and never, ever has complained but kept on going on. She has been such a wonderful person to look up to and model one's life after.
I am so thankful for all the wonderful friends I have. I am so lucky to live in a small town where people look out for each other. I am lucky to live in America where opportunities abound for all and where we can come and go as we please, worship freely and can express oneself as we chose.
I am truly thankful for all of you, my blogger friends, who have opened up my world! I have learned so much from each one of you, explored new places, traveled the world and laughed with you and shared in your triumphs.
Happy Thanksgiving!

It is good you celebrate Thanks giving. I lived in some countries that it is not celebrated.
But in Sarawak, the natives celebrate their harvest festival.
