Girl you hit the nail on the head with that post! You are blessed!!!!

I echo your thankfulness. My husband and I talked about how blessed we are just yesterday. Our problems are so light weight and small - people have "real" issues. I am trying to teach the kids to be more thankful for all they have too.

I'm thankful to have so many wonderful bloggers (like you Adrienne) who sew and share their success and wadders with us.
I'm thankful that I found my darn digital camera. I hate when I put things where I'm sure I'll remember where I put it...but I don't. I've got to work on that short term memory thing ;)

Congrats on your award. One of the positive things coming out of this difficult time is that we are all having to re-evalutate what is important. "Thankful" is a state of being that a lot of people forgot about, but we should always be living in.
