Today I am thankful for family. I am part of a wonderful family, full of love and caring. I couldn’t be more blessed. I have little people around to keep me smiling, keep me moving, and keep me laughing. They express their love in such beautiful ways.

I have big people in my life who take care of me, make sure I take care of myself, love me, support me, and keep me guessing :) I read several emotional blog posts today about Veterans Day and mother’s who send their sons and daughters off to war and it made me want to cry. In my perfect world I’d gather my family close, wrap you in my arms, and keep you forever!

I had a wonderful day with family, a wonderful evening with family, tomorrow will be a wonderful day with almost family, and soon I get to spend several days with even more family. I couldn’t be happier. Thank you all.
