This week brought many people and things to be thanksful for.
I am thankful for the children in my classroom and all the wonder and giving attitudes they brought with them to our "Friendship Feast" this past week.
I am thankful for the gift of my family. 30 of us gathered at my sister's house for food and fun.
I think the highlight of the day was the opportunity for each of us to talk to my nephew Dave who is in Mali with the Peace Corps. We got in touch with him on his cell phone as he was biking back to his village through the Sahara Desert! Isn't Technology wonderful!
I am thankful for my late husband's family. They came from as far away as Virginia to celebrate a meal together. We arrived in time for dessert. The kids had a great time just being with their cousins and catching up with one another.
I am thankful for the workshop I attended this weekend. I made new friends and caught up with others I'd made at previous gatherings. We had a great time together and enjoyed the time with one another laughing and learning!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. :)
Lee, I have not visited your blog in a long time. I enjoyed reading and was touched by the comment you made about Dave in Mali. I know he will be thrilled when I read it to him next week!
Love
