Giving Thanks!

This year I want to give special thanks that my Father in Law is still here with us to celebrate another holiday with his family. He has been in the hospital for the last 29 days with acute Pancreatitis, after beating the odds, they only gave him a 25% chance of survival, he will come home from the hospital tomorrow on Thanksgiving day!! What a blessing to our family! It has been a very rough month for all of us!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you and may your day be filled with the love and company of family and friends.

There is hope in the future!

I hope everyone was able to get out and vote. I know it made me feel as though I was doing something for my country that I love so much.

Even though last night had some disappointments, it was also filled with hope. Our country is in a terrible mess right now and we need someone running our country that can help us out of the whole we have been dug into. No matter who we voted for, or for what reasons. We all have to pull together and support our new president and pray that he can help our country recover.

It warmed my heart to watch McCain's speech last night as he asked us all to pull together and support Obama. He was so very genuine and so graceful. He had just lost a historic election, yet he didn't want to wallow in his disappointment, he encouraged us to believe in our future leader and band together to make the US a better place. It was an amazing speech! I see hope in our future!!
