Thanksgiving in St. Petersburg again this year. I am thankful for that. So thankful that my boys know and love both sides of their family. Thankful that they are a little older so that the day is actually fun now. Thankful for lots of food to fill our plates. Thankful that we had the same faces at our table as last year. Nobody was sick or, God forbid!, dead.
Thankful for Martha Stewart because I bought her baking handbook and made the most awesome pecan and pumpkin pies with my first homemade crusts. I took pictures.
Thankful that I have a hobby that I really enjoy.
Thankful that I am growing as person and a mother.
Thankful for the new people that have come into our lives this year. Art Filip and Russ Suddeth and Rick Stout - you are men among men and have had a tremendous impact in the lives of my sons.
Shirley, Roxanne, Chris, Brenda K, Michelle P., Annette, Joyce, Gwen, Blair, Julie, John, Lisa C and Betsy - you all make me laugh and I am so thankful for you.
Thankful for another year with Gary. He is a fantastic husband and father. It was his birthday yesterday.
Thankful for my Mom who is my best friend.
Thankful for Sweetwater Episcopal Academy. The people and the education are priceless.
Along the lines of that which doesn't kill us makes us stronger, thankful for flag football.
Finally, as always, thankful for Steve Jobs. He makes technology ROCK!
