Giving Thanks on Thanksgiving

What a great day for sitting back and taking stock of all the blessings I and may family enjoy.
We had a beautiful sunny 55 degree day here in Ohio. My daughter was coming in from North Carolina and the whole family was soon to assemble at the house for dinner. In addition, we just got word that our niece's health has improved and surgery has been averted. While I was walking back to the barn to feed the alpacas, the sun was warming me and thoughts of my family, friends, good food came to me in a rush.
It was one of those extraordinary moments when you simply "get it."
What a family...what a country... what a life!
