Forgive my predictability here, but these are a few of the things for which I am grateful:
* for being old enough to be irreverent and young enough to wear cowboy boots, and get away with both.
* for my old Passat that keeps hangin’ in there.
* for kids I would be honored to know even if I wasn’t their mother.
* for friends who make me laugh until I cry.
* for big brothers who call me “Kid,” and “Sweethaht.”
* for classroom moments that take my breath away.
* for little boxes of paint that wait patiently in the closet.
* for my mom who teaches me how to grow old gracefully.
* for Sadie who tugs at my heart from 900 miles away.
* for coffee and chocolate.
* for my Bose Wave Radio/CD Player that I turn on even before I set down my keys.
* for books and exquisite sentences that must be read over and over again.
* for the Atlantic Ocean, four minutes away.
* for every day that brings one damn gift after another.

Gorgeous Louise!!!!!!!!!!! I think it's so important to always reflect on the things that make our life so special. Yay, for coffee and chocolate--they keep me sane. Lots of love on Thanksgiving. XOX
