Thanks To You.

Through out the year so much has happened.
So many thank you's, so many hugs, so many secret prayers for so many of you.
My friends (Val, Jenn, Shauna, Carla, Buffie, Jill, Clista, Liz, Roz, John, Kim, Maurine, Beth, Rich, Jen K, Athena) my family (mom and dad, Dominic, the boys, Christy, Aunt Sue, Uncle Bob, Uncle Phil, Uncle Tom, Terri, Tim, Ryan, Whitney, Tony, Annette, Esther, Dan) my online muses ( Carlos, Mindy,Yvonne,Robin, Rob, Heather, Dave, Jane) my real life inspiration (Beth, Jack, Justin, Sally, MaryL, Kelly, Millie, Janette, Janet, Tom)
A big bunch of very important people to me. I know I have missed so many.

I would not have gotten thru this past year with out any of these people.(and all of those I am sure I have forgotten a name or two)

I am thankful for so many things. Surrounded by so many blessings. My wonderful husband, my wonderful kids, my family, my friends, the roof over my head, the food in my belly, the clothes on my back, the good health that surrounds my family for the most part. The love and the laughter in my heart.
I am thankful for the warm welcoming home my boys and I will go to tomorrow night to break bread with my ever growing family. I am thankful for the wonderful meal all of my aunts and my uncle will assemble and eat. But the bottom of it all... I am thankful for that wonderful grandmother that created us all. Her legacy will gather tomorrow and share and laugh and cry (you know we will) and remember her and miss her. Thanks to her this crazy family with all the arguing and yelling and cursing and drinking and laughing we do we are one of the best families you'll ever find. At least I think so.
I don't need anything more that than.

Thank you.
