Thanksgiving

Winding down this thanksgiving weekend I feel reflective and deeply grateful.  Joe and I spent thanksgiving with my parents in Arkansas. We also travelled to visit Joe's mother in St. Louis, MO.  Time with our parents is healing and life giving. Arkansas and Missouri are beautiful states and have a more peaceful pace.  We are home now and just enjoyed some home made turkey soup from leftovers mom and dad sent with us.  As I head into a very hectic week, being present to this moment and reflecting on the past few days is calming.  For now, I count my blessings, and say thank you.
