Aww! This makes me smile!

I'm grateful for baking day! Today I bake for tomorrow's feast.

I’ve been delaying opening this cuz I feel like I have nothing to be grateful
For today. But that warmed my heart.

I’m grateful that all of my children love us and enjoy our company. That none of us blame us for the trauma they have experienced and also don’t blame us for their issues

We're doing thankful pumpkins too. It's been a lot of fun & dd19 asked if we could find a way to continue next month. Yesterday dd15 said she was grateful for the way they have been raised. She means all of it - homeschooling, family focus, faith. She couldn't figure out how to write it on the pumpkin.

Today I'm grateful for kids who can say we'll start cleaning at 10:30 and do. They cranked the music and cranked out most of the work.

I am also grateful that my dh is still working. He has to work late tonight because of issues, but I'm grateful for the hours and hopeful he can get there too.

ECing Mom, I'm so glad she got to dance!

She had another show tonight, and they did video it. It’s better in person, but I’ll share the link when it comes.

My neighbor came. She’s a nurse in our local hospital, in patient adult. She said it was incredible.

My friend who is a child life specialist in the ER came last night. She specializes in grief and has been helping kids when they are told their 30, 40 ish age parents have died of covid. She said the meal at my house and seeing my daughter perform was exactly what she needed. . She feels refreshed and ready to work Fri-Monday.

I'm grateful today for seeing my washing drying on the line and for being able to make dinner for my family.

Simple things...but its been a very tough few weeks and I am only just beginning to see the "little" things again

What a huge blessing you are to those around you to include them in this. The hardest part of Covid is not sharing special
Times and I’m thrilled you got
To do that

Today I’m grateful for GCM. I’m truly unsure I would’ve survived without you all!!!!!

Happy thanksgiving
