I’m grateful this holiday season

for the mature and generous young women my daughters have become. The thoughtful and well-considered gifts they gave to everyone on their lists gladdened my heart.

for the lovely music of my 10-year old son’s clarinet. He’s come so far in just two years and I can’t wait to see how good he gets.

for husband and I having three long-time jobs between us and how well we are treated at the jobs. I was gobsmacked by the bonus and gifts I received this year, but most especially for the sincere appreciation and respect shown me at my place of employment.

for my mother’s presence, even though she is failing pretty quickly. Every day is a blessing.

and most of all I’m glad that my husband and I didn’t throw in the towel earlier this year after 23 years of marriage. We’ve been working hard and moving back together. This magical Christmas has been an enormous boost.

God bless all of you and I hope to read many good news threads in the coming year!
