Ever So Thankful

.

Mentally moving toward Thanksgiving, I'm going to try focus on being thankful, at least every day, and try to post here, a couple times a week, my thankful thoughts (and an a occasional picture).








For a safe, friendly neighborhood, and "the best Trick or Treat ever" (according to Little Red Riding Hood -- and thankfully everyone knew who she was).



And I suppose I am thankful that Maggie is a mellow puppy and will allow herself to be dressed as a fairy by the youngest child (but really Peach just wanted me to show you her picture).



I'm thankful for the Communion of Saints in heaven to whom we turn daily for their beneficent prayers. (And I'm particularly thankful that there are many more in heaven than there are on my mantel).



For warm candles and blankets on a cold fall night. The weather turned (again) and it is cold, cold, cold at night and getting colder each day.



I'm also thankful for the early night. I so appreciate the hard stop that darkness affords us in the winter. We settle down sooner and turn in earlier...the long winter's night.

If you will join me in posting your Thankful Thoughts, leave a comment so I can share a link.
