Here are a few things I'm thankful for:

• I'm thankful for my God
• I'm thankful for the love of my husband and children
• I'm thankful that my mom and I are the best of friends
• I'm thankful to had my dad in my life for 24 wonderful years, and that he was alive to walk me down the aisle and meet his first grandchild
• I'm thankful for my Indiana family
• I'm thankful for good friends, especially for those who have dealt with me on a bad day.
• I'm thankful for the roof over my head, food in my pantry, clothes on my back, and the financial security of having a job, insurance and money in the bank.
• I'm thankful for my health and the health of my loved ones.
• I'm thankful for my education and life experiences I've been granted.
• I'm thankful for the arts - books, movies, theater, music
• I'm thankful for my freedom (this should be much higher on the list)

• I'm thankful for chocolate, peanut butter, Japanese food, Video Entertainment Systems in vehicles, LL Bean slippers, and the nights when my husband cooks dinner.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
