A day of great food, loved ones, gratitude, and reflection is upon us. While I will be spending most of the day catering to the needs of our little ones, I will make an effort to sit down and have a moment to myself… a moment to truly appreciate my surroundings. I am grateful for our children, waking up to “mama!”, big coffee mugs, my family, old friends, new friends, the lovely town we live in, Sunday morning breakfasts, soft pillows, little feet, holding my hand out and having a warm, little hand reach up and clutch it, sunsets, wine, my wonderful husband and the joy he brings to my life every day, and I am grateful for the joyous confusion that is my life. A moment to myself is always appreciated but moments with my family are the ones I love the most. I am thrilled and blessed I get to celebrate Thanksgiving with my little muffins whom I love so dearly. I wish you all a very happy, healthy, and hearty Thanksgiving with your families.
