thankful...

cannot believe that thanksgiving is next week...I am very thankful for so much...a wonderful husband and kids, wonderful parent, step-parent and in-law mommy and surrounded by so many good family members and friends, thankful for food and a home, for good health and a good church and school...

and for this!  Boys leave for a youth leadership workshop for catholic teens from all over the country...I will miss them as they are gone for a few days, and she will miss them too!  The hug before was even sweeter as she wrapped her arms around his neck and chased Hagan around saying "bye Hagey!"
