Life is good!


We are so blessed to have a nice home, plenty of food, wonderful family and friends, our health.  I always reflect on what I am most thankful for before my favorite holiday, Thanksgiving.   Drew has been super tired the past few days...I think it's a growing spurt.  He fell asleep in front of the cozy fire, and turned toward the fireplace to bask in more heat.  He is sleeping so peacefully, so I will curl up on the couch and keep the fire going tonight. He continues to amaze me every day with his spirit, sense of humor, and determination.  He is a typical 10 year old in many ways; he, uhm, passed gas at therapy today and cracked up so loud I heard him and everyone in the gym laughing, and I was in the waiting room!  I found out after the fact what the ruckus was about.  I learned long ago, to not be embarassed by anything this kid does.  He is just, well, Drew. Boys are gross sometimes.  :)
I hope this Thanksgiving season finds everyone with bountiful blessings to reflect on.  It is the start of the Christmas season, but without the commercialism and stress...Thanksgiving is about family and friends, spending valuable time together.  To quote Kid Rock:
Cuz' I hear screamin on the left
Yellin on the right
I'm sitting in the middle tryin' to live my life
Cuz' I can't stop the war
Shelter homeless, feed the poor
Can't walk on water
I can't save your sons and daughters
I can't change the world and make things fair
The least that I can do,
The least that I can do
The least that I can do is Care.

Thought for the Day

It isn't how you walk in life, but how you walk through life that matters.
