Thank the Moms Day!

Today has been a wonderful day. We are so blessed and I am grateful. While I wish I could share all of my blessings, I am afraid this blog would be too long and you would tire before I was through. For me Thanksgiving is a year round thing, but somehow around this time of year we always seem to take more time to notice our blessings. Today, my sister and I had a meeting after our regular Sunday meetings. We left our children at home and when we got back, they had a surprise for us. We could not go in the house and 'see' what they were up to, so they escorted us to the back room to wait. They finished their preparations and told us we could come up to the kitchen. They had prepared dinner, which included a relish tray, fresh tossed green salad, Quesa dillas (and I know that is not spelled right), scrambled eggs and a fruit shake. They had popped corn and had made no-bake cookies for dessert. They decided it was "Thank the Moms Day". They are such good kids and I am so grateful to be their mom and a mom to my sister's children too. It truly made my day. Then we got a surprise visit from our special friend, Jeremy. It is always such a pleasure to have him visit. We have adopted him as one of our own kids and we have truly been blessed from knowing him as he has touched our life and the lives of many others. And so I begin my blessing counting and the list continues to grow and grow. And to all of you who may at sometime read this, Thanks. Thanks for being a friend, for being there and for sharing your life with me.
