A year that includes your children coming home from the NICU, and your neighbors house blowing up 5 days before you close your sale (and still ended up closing the deal!) results in numerous reasons to be thankful. I won't leave you with a list of our many blessings, I'll only pick one, one thing I've never knew existed before this year.
I am very thankful to be part of the community of families that have disabled children. I'm thankful for the warm smiles from strangers that I pass. Smiles that say, it's going to be okay, you can do it! I'm thankful for conversations with strangers, where there is a fundamental common bond. I'm grateful when people make a big fuss over Sam and ignore Coraline (who is t he one who usually gets all the attention).
This year the invisible has become visible, I am grateful for new friends I have made, and people I no longer over look. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
