For me this day signifies the beginning of the holiday season. A time spent with family and friends, enjoying the festivities, shopping, decorating and not to mention, filling our bellies with delicious treats. The warmth and comfort that fills my spirit during the holidays makes every moment so special.

I find myself reflecting on my past, growing up in a loving environment, with a very supportive family that provided for all my wants and needs. And in my reflection, I think back most to the holiday season, sitting around the fireplace, singing carols and counting how many presents were under the tree. The excitement we experienced when it was time to hand out gifts, and even more excitement when it was our turn to open them.
Now that I have my own children to celebrate with, I am more motivated than ever to share with them what has made my experiences so special. I want them to feel the magic of the season as I did!
First I would like to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving filled with love and precious memories, shared with your family and friends on this special day! Now, here’s what I’m thankful for:
- My God for with whom none of this would be possible
- Family and friends (most importantly my two beautiful children)
- A roof over our heads and the clothes on our backs (so many don’t have even that much)
- Our health (my prayers go out to all those battling illnesses this year)
- My business (doing something I love and sharing it with the world)
Be blessed and stay safe this holiday season.
