All is quiet.  Before long, however, the coffepot will be emptied and the house will come alive with chatter and activity.  There’s a bird to bake, fresh cream to whip – and a million little things in between.  Before it all begins, however, I’ll sit here and consider my blessings.  

I’m thankful for …

• Grace
• Laughter
• A few tears
• Mom’s sausage dressing
• Pilgrim’s pumpkin pie
• Books
• Music
• Dreams
• Answered prayer
• Unanswered prayer
• Times of quiet
• Moments of excited chaos
• Happy memories
• Family
• Friends

I’m thankful …
