Happy Thanksgiving and a Thoughtful Thankful List

I just want  to wish you all a very Happy Thanksgiving!  I hope you have a wonderful time being with family and friends.

Also, I wanted to share with you a more contemplative thankful list.  Coming up on Thanksgiving, and ending the year, I find it’s a time of reflection of all the gifts we’ve been given.  And sometimes, it’s easy to skip over some of the blessings.  So I developed a list last year, you can use it personally, or share with family and friends.  Feel free to print it out and use it.
