Thanksgiving Day 3: Laughter


If I look too far into the future, I get a little sad. There are only so many years left with all my chicks in the nest.

Today I am grateful for laughter. I give thanks for the memories we're making in the day to day life... memories nobody else holds, but them and me. They've grown. Those teenage years I worried about when I rocked babes in my arms, have come in a whirlwind. I wasn't prepared for the breakneck speed. People would say 'it goes so fast', I simply did not believe.

But it does go fast. So listen. And watch. And laugh when you can, because laughing, together, is the best part of all.

Today I am thankful for laughter.
