I am thankful for little girls, although not so little anymore, who enjoy little things such as homemade spa treatments and dressing up.
I am thankful for bigger girls who get to go off to girls camp and do not complain when their older and not cool mother tags along.
I am thankful for beautiful scenery that somehow fills my soul with vitality and freshness and gives me a sense that I can live in the brownness of the desert once again.
I am thankful for a family, where a vacation with them, is really a vacation.
I am thankful for temples and temple blessings where family can be together as a family forever although it didn't begin that way.
I am thankful for a Daddy who took his girls on a daddy daughter date promising them a great time and fulfilled that promise.
I am thankful for the Lady Leprechauns who entertained me for so many weekends. It was a fun season!
I am thankful for a wonderful day of Thanksgiving. It started with a turkey trot followed by a friendly neighborhood soccer game. Then, a family dinner out where mom could relax and enjoy the day without cooking. Once bellies were full and conversations were complete it was time to switch gears and head to the movies for an afternoon with the Muppets. The family finished the day with board games at home listening to Christmas music and munching on pumpkin pie.
I am so grateful and feel truly blessed.
