GIVING THANKS ON THANKSGIVING
During one of my typical (usually daily) pinning sessions on Pinterest, I came across this quote in the picture above. It really got me thinking, and on this chilly Thanksgiving morning, I figured I would share with you all what I am most thankful for. I’m sure I could literally go on forever if I wanted to, but I’ll try and keep it as concise as possible. Hope everyone has a wonderful day filled with turkey, loved ones, andfull bellies.
I am thankful for my family and the undying love and support they’ve given me throughout the years. I am thankful for the friends who have filled my life with laughter and many unforgettable memories that will be cherished for eternity. I am thankful for my service dog, Fred, who also happens to be my very best friend.

Does that make me seem a little weird? I am thankful for nurses, not just mine, but for every nurse who is improving the quality of life for their patients. I am thankful for my past, for it led me to this very moment and some pretty amazing experiences along the way. I am thankful for the bad times because they all have helped me to grow and learn for the better. I am thankful for cupcakes. Especially the red velvet ones.
