Happy Thanksgiving!
As I get ready to start our holiday meal I have much to be thankful for. I try to spend time every day remembering to be grateful for all the things I have been graced with in my life.
Here is a short list of the things I am grateful for:
My husband and my children
The beauty of nature-and those who work to protect it 
my extended family and that both of my parents are still with us as they move toward their 50th wedding anniversary-together!
our pets: three cats and two goldfish along with a dog that sometimes comes for a visit.
I am also grateful for people who are willing to take a risk to speak out for those who do not have a voice in the world; like George 
and his father Nick on behalf of the people of the Sudan, the people at On Earth Peace
.
And yes, while one could over do it with holiday excesses, we try to be reasonable. We tend to focus more on enjoying our family, having a good time and being kind to each other.
