Happy Thanksgiving!

Howdy, everybody;

For us, this is a unique Thanksgiving; for the first time since we had kids, we (Pop and Grandma) are spending Thanksgiving alone. So it's a new thing for us. I guess it's a bit of a transition, but it will be OK.

On the other hand, yesterday we got to take Granddaughter to the zoo, and that was a treat!

Thanksgiving: Thanks to God (the Christian one, in case you were wondering) for every blessing in our lives.

First, for His undiluted love, from which all other true love flows;

Second, for His amazing gift of His Son, and thereby our salvation.

Third, for the love of each member of our family for each other, which derives ultimately from His love.

Fourth, for the love of our friends and their families.

Fifth, for the general health, safety and well-being of each of us in our family and our friend's families.

Sixth, for the general prosperity we enjoy - not rich by any means, but sufficient to our real needs.

All of these things are gifts of God; and except for His love and our salvation, none of them are guaranteed in this life. We are blessed indeed. Thank You, Lord, and all praise to You!

Enough said!
