The Beginning of My Musings

          The month of Thanksgiving celebration has come, a gorgeous and favorite autumn holiday of mine. If there is a countdown to Christmas, let this be my countdown to Thanksgiving. I invite you to join the living room of this heart with a warm cup of "coffee-flavored milk" and servings of coconut macaroons.  There are also hot coffee and tiramisu or hot chocolate with marshmallows. Would you like some?
          What is there to be grateful for especially this night....the night my affectionate and loving husband encouraged my heart to start a blog, while seated beside him on the sofa watching Sunday night football.  Isn't that sweet?  Inspiring.  I will call him Cuddle, the first character of my blog.  
           On the rug, my very imaginative and artistic, young daughter is happily crafting out a life-size, bondpaper snowgirl as one of her decorations for this coming Christmas, as she watches "Beauty and the Beast" for the first time.  At last, her Daddy gave her turn to watch.  Her name is Ninja, the second character, "thoughtful" by heart. 
            Minutes earlier, my tween was assembling Lego Technic #8070 by the hearth, daddy on the assist.  A red, high-tech, supercar that needs 1281 lego pieces of different sizes to build.  It was a gift from his aunt.   A challenging fit that he asked to play minecraft after that.   He is Jonathan,  my third character, who loves to build but also is a very great helper.
            So, what is there to be thankful for?  A family.  A unit of society that comes in all shapes, sizes and colors.  My family.  Your family.  
            Let me end this first blog by qouting partly a phrase I learned from the "Winn-Dixie" movie, something like this, "there comes a time you must let go...enjoy them while you have them or while you can."
