Thankful...

Think big thoughts but relish small pleasures. 
~H. Jackson Brown, Jr.


We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures. ~Thornton Wilder

Reflecting today on all that I am thankful for...

My daughters
My family & friends
My home and the comfort it gives me
The country that I live in which allows me the freedoms we take for granted
A job that allows me to be home on the holidays with my loved ones

And the many small things that I try to stop and take notice of...

The change of seasons
The magic of the holidays and the festivities that surround them
A warm fire in my living room
Freshly baked cookies
A warm bubble bath
Flannel sheets
Hot coffee
Music & Art
The simple & amazing beauty of nature
The joy of giving gifts over receiving them
Using my hands to Craft, Cook, & Bake

What are you thankful for?

Wishing you Love, Warmth, & Happiness this Thanksgiving and always!

Happy Thoughts,
Lisa
