A Creative Way to Show Gratitude This Thanksgiving {and what I’m Thankful for}

Thankful 2

Yesterday, while I was out running some errands I found myself taking a moment to stop and reflect on all that I have to be thankful for.  This year has been filled with lots of wonderful things…new adventures, new challenges, new lessons and new opportunities.  For all this I am grateful and thankful.

I am thankful for my husband who makes me feel like a princess every day and carries my purse when we’re at the mall! {that’s some kind of love}

Although I won’t be spending Thanksgiving with my mom, I am thankful that she will be cozy and warm in her home and will know that I love her dearly.  {I can’t wait to hug her at Christmas!}

I am thankful for Mary and my brother, their  love and the fact that my brother is always there to help me solve my computer issues. 

I am thankful that my nephew has grown up to be a smart, strong and compassionate young man in a world filled of challenges. 

I am thankful for a circle of family and friends, near, far and departed that fill my heart with love & joy. 

I am thankful for my health, my strength, my talents and for the things I’ve accomplished in my life.  {Thank you God for these blessings}

I am thankful for all of the business and blogging relationships I have developed and the  amazing opportunities they have provided. 

I am thankful that I’ve had the opportunity to travel and experience new places this year.  Every adventure has inspired me beyond measure!

And, I am thankful for all of  YOU, that stop by this blog each day and find inspiration in what I share.  You fuel my passion to live a creative life and share it with others.

Happy Thanksgiving 2
