So many happenings and there is so little time.

The beautiful leaves disappeared quickly before our very eyes. How do I miss their beauty.

It’s time to give thanks together. Where will we go and what will we eat? Should we eat out or in? As I look at all the starving people in our world, I am very thankful that I have enough to eat and more food
available to me than I really need.

In this economy, if you have food, a home and a job, you have a lot to be thankful for this year.

The elections are finally over and a new beautiful family will grace our nation’s White House. Democracy shined brightly.

The thing that I have been most thankful for this year and always, is that I was born in our great country, the United States of America. God Bless us one and all!

Thank you, Kristin, for reminding us for all the blessings we have in this great country! Few Americans are aware that even the poorest Americans are richer than more than 80% of the rest of the world. God has blessed this country beyond our imagination. After all we are the only nation in the world that has “In God we trust” on our dollar bills and as our motto - I speak for the majority of America where over 90% proclaim themselves as believers.
