Happy Thanksgiving

So it is Thanksgiving.  So many people have spent this month talking about what they are thankful for.  It is something that we all reflect on this month.  I am working on reflecting on this everyday and I plan on improving my thank you's to God as I have so much to be thankful for.  So many times we concentrate on what someone else has, or what we do not have, that the blessings that are ours are looked over.  I know I am guilty of this.  Every morning we wake up is a chance to do better to be better, every morning is a new day with new possibilities and so many blessings. 
I complain about time, running behind, having a bad day, being broke, and so many other things that until I stop and think about it seem so huge, but truly they are not huge, they are not even big.  In life we lose focus.  The things that I do have should definitely take up more room in my mind as they are the things that are huge.  I have God and Jesus, I have an amazing family, I have an amazing church and school for my children to attend, I have love, hope, faith, and I have friends.  I have a roof over my head and a wonderful job.  I have so much and this is what I hope to focus on more.
We started this morning with the Thanksgiving Day Parade on TV. One day I will make it to New York City to watch it live.  I have thought it was so magical since I was a child, and I know that we would all love it. 
This year the turkey was carved and my boys pulled the wish bone.  They were so funny doing it and really thought it was the best thing ever.
Family came over and helped us to celebrate Thanksgiving and we all had a very nice time. 
Happy Thanksgiving to all of my family and friends both near and far.
