I am thankful for the life i have
I am thankful for my new lease on life and the journey I am on
I am thankful for the love in my life that surrounds me

To add to this,
I am thankful to have had and used a set of crystal dishes every year for thanksgiving that my eldest has always cherished and as i pulled the "pitcher" down to give to her today all the memories of thanksgiving pasts came flooding back and im a little torn up however i know that it is time for her to have this set of dishes because she remembers all the holidays with them,,,it is now time for her to have memories with her girls and these dishes her momma loved so much.

she darn near broke the pitcher some 13-14 years ago when her arm accidentally hit it knocking it over causing juice to flood my beautiful decorated lace table ill never forget the tears in her eyes as i calmly told her it was all right and then i giggled ...cleaned up the mes made a new pitcher of juice and we all sat down to eat...all these years later that pitcher is rightfully hers even if it is tugging at me a bit ...
