Thankful Thursday

Good morning!  BRRRrrrr!  Our weather has finally made a drastic change.  We've had highs of 65 lately.  That sure doesn't feel like December.  It's finally beginning to feel like Christmas!

So glad the weekend is in sight!  Work has finally calmed down a bit and I think by Monday, we'll be almost back to normal.  As usual, December is rushing ahead to Christmas.  I can't believe it's less than 20 days away.  I am very excited, yet I still have a few gifts to pick up.

Today, I'm thankful that my mother-in-law, who suffered a stroke on November 1st, has eaten pureed food this week.  This is probably the biggest hurdle she's jumped since she became responsive.  My husband also believes she has responded to touch on her foot on her paralyzed side.  Though it was a difficult choice to send her over to the hospital specialty wing a good 30 - 45 minutes away, the success that she's having with therapy daily has made it all worth it.

I'm looking forward to my visit with her this afternoon.  Not to mention, we are all looking for a Christmas Miracle that will bring her home soon.

What are you thankful for?

Happy Lil' Friday, y'all!
xoxo,
Laurie
