Dear Parents & Friends,
~Grateful~Thankful~Blessed~
We see these words written
all over the place this time of
year; on clothing, home dcor,
and bumper stickers, to name a
few. I suppose I wonder, Do
we really mean what we
advertise or is it just a catch
phrase, and shouldnt we be
practicing this all year long
instead of just at Thanksgiving
time?
I know that many of you do
this and work hard to instill this
virtue. Others of us work at it,
but it is a continual process that
needs the occasional reminder.
Perhaps that is what the holiday
season is for; giving us that
extra little nudge we need to
remind us to be grateful for our
blessings.
I wish you all a truly blessed
family Thanksgiving.
God Bless!
Nancy Butters
