Thanksgiving isn’t about a meal. It isn’t about where you eat or even what you do. It is about expressing gratitude, and giving thanks.

I have everything I’ve ever wanted. And for this, I am oh, so thankful.

They say home is where the heart is and, right now, my heart beats in the walls of this space where I cradle eight years of memories in a tender fold of my heart.

I would love to go back in time and talk to my 2007 husband as we decided to start a family. 

Thank you for sharing all of who you are with our small boys, because who you are is wonderful.

To again quote the phenomenon that is Galit Breen #ShareWhatMatters.

I'm talking about the rich glow within the lives of those often gracing the edges of a crowd.

Last night, when our eyes met across the room, you remind me that the beauty is worth more than all of the messes.

I would do that for you. I would stand in the snow for you. I would humble myself in front of strangers if it meant we could have food on the table.
