Happy Thanksgiving!

In the spirit of Thanksgiving tomorrow, I'm trying to be more grateful for my children. For some reason, probably related to the pain I've been in from my tooth and my PMS this week, I've been really cranky for the last few days. Everybody seems to be getting on my nerves, especially my family, which is truly a shame, since they're the ones I love the most and most want to spend my time with. I keep trying to talk myself out of whatever funk I'm in, but so far, it's not working, and the cranky wife/mother keeps coming around and rearing her ugly head. I'm hoping now that my root canal is finally over with, and the worst of the pain is subsiding that she will pack her bags and leave. I feel bad for my poor children and husband when I'm such a bear to deal with! Anyway, wanted to wish you all out in cyber land a very happy turkey day, whether you're staying at home and celebrating with family, having four thousand missionaries over for dinner, or traveling over the river and through the woods. This year, I'm grateful for my health, my family, and a warm comfortable home to live in. This year hasn't been without it's trials, to be sure, but we have come through them whole and intact, and still loving each other, which is an accomplishment, I think. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
