I opened the blog this morning and looked at the first entries. I started the blog in November of 2007 because I knew the future held information that would need to be disseminated quickly. John's health was a major concern. But the tone of the blog was positive. We had fun that Thanksgiving and holiday season. And that is how we will continue.
There have been many tears shed while posting to this blog. A few today while reading past entries and even posting today. But there are many happy moments that have been recorded too. Someday I will be able to read all of the entries with AJ and help him to know what a great Dad he had. And we will be able to laugh at all of the pictures I took of AJ that I got to share with my friends.
Our family has changed but I am still thankful. Thankful for my wonderful husband, my beautiful daughter, and my successful Mike! Thankful for daughter-in-law Jesi, who is a great mom. Thankful for my almost healthy parents who are leaving for Florida tomorrow. Thankful for my friends. Without them I never would have been able to keep this blog going. Knowing they check up on me by reading the blog is a comfort.
With that said my thought for today will be to just wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy the friends and family that are with you. Live, laugh, and make memories for tomorrow.
