Thanksgiving Week

Christmas carols are playing on the radio, every store I go in has rows of Christmas themed items at the front, and the weather has taken a turn toward winter. But, I’m trying hard not to forget this is Thanksgiving week.

This is a time to focus on our blessings. Time to slow down, pay attention, and give thanks. Time to enjoy our family and friends and thank them for the blessing they bring to our lives. One last week to celebrate fall before the Christmas season is in full swing.

I am choosing to celebrate thanksgiving week. I am choosing to focus on gratitude. Please join me. Let me know how you are celebrating Thanksgiving week.

    1. Thanks Cecile. I love being able to sponge whatever color I need on black and white patterned paper or embossed images.
