Reflecting

I'm sitting in my living room with my great friend Amanda, surrounded by puppies with a fire in the fireplace.  For me this is a recipe for deep thought...

I've been thinking a lot today about the last year and the things I'm thankful for.  They are too numerous to mention here, but as today winds down I have begun to think about tomorrow.  For most people tomorrow is a day filled with the hustle and bustle of shopping, leftovers and the love of family.  My day is also likely to be filled with all of those things. 

Tomorrow also brings some sadness for me.  On the day after Thanksgiving last year my sweet friend Becky went to Heaven.  While tomorrow isn't technically the anniversary of her death in my mind and heart it feels like it because it's the "day after Thanksgiving". 

We are planning to do some shopping tomorrow but I know in the back of everyone's mind will be our sweet Becky.  So, at the end of this day filled with thankfulness I am most thankful that Becky spent THIS Thanksgiving at the banquet table of our Lord.
