Trying to be thankful all year long can be tough - especially if it's been a hard year. However, I am always glad for the opportunity to really reflect on my life - and Thanksgiving is a good time to do that. This year, I'm especially grateful for family. Chemo has been rough on my dad, and he's been in the hospital with an infection after every 3 week round. Over Thanksgiving, he had a break and was feeling a little stronger than he had been. Thanksgiving was a nice time to spend together, and we played lots of games after dinner. I have so much to be thankful for, and it was nice to be reminded of all the wonderful things in my life.

Decorating the gingerbread turkeys. Yep, that's a thing now.

And finally, I think Jack summed it up right with what he is thankful for this year. Both answers touched my heart.
