    Yeah, I know...this is sorta lame, but I always get sentimental during the holidays. What are you thankful for? I'll start:

    * I'm an American
    * I'm free to practice Christianity
    * I'm married to my soul mate
    * my 3 wonderful daughters
    * my 8 awesome grandkids
    * my great friends
    * my comfortable home
    * my dogs
    * my success with writing (a lifelong dream)
    * I live in a great community
    * I still have decent health and a (mostly) functioning brain

    I have so much to be grateful for this year.
    I am grateful for
    Each breath I take
    My husband who is home with me and not deployed
    My two sons and their significant others
    My Grandson
    My grandbabies to come in June
    My wonderful car that goes really fast
    The roof over my head
    The men and women who are standing the line to keep us free
    The Flag that stands for that Freedom
    The Land of Free and the Home of the Brave

    If you know a Soldier who can't make it home for the holidays, bring them to your home.

      Inviting a soldier for dinner is a wonderful idea! One year we had 3 Japanese guests, along with my uncle who served in the Air Force during WWII and flew missions over Japan. I was a little concerned, but it went great!
