Just a quick note before the holidays. As I reflect on Thanksgiving and the true intent behind the holiday, I am reminded of traditions that are near and dear to my heart. I remember growing up my mom would get up extremely early and start cooking the bird. When I managed to drag myself out of bed I would smell the aroma of Turkey. I will never forget how good that smelled.
Now that I am grown I am trying to teach my kids how blessed we are to live in this wonderful country. Do we have problems in this country? Yes and they are big ones but I wouldn't want to live anywhere else. One tradition we have is for everyone to say what they are most thankful for. I love doing that and I look forward to this Thanksgiving when I can enjoy that tradition again.
No matter what it is you do for the holiday, I hope you take the time to count your blessings, because I am positive you have many blessings to give thanks for!
That is all.
