A quick post since I'm such a lazy blogger.
We are settling in and the calm it brings is making us mildly reflective and extremely celebratory. Our theme this month is Gratitude. We have a chart in the kitchen and each day someone states what they are thankful for. So far we have listed: healthy beautiful children, today!, being alive, friends and family, and everything but bad stuff. A pretty good list. Our theme of gratitude extends to celebrating other cultures as well. Tonight we had a hearty, fall dinner surrounded by candlelight and collected leaves. Fifi told us the story of Rama and we learned the history of Diwali. Thanksgiving is just around the corner and happens to be a Fiets' favorite holiday. Everything about this time of year is comforting; the harvest moon, celebrating blessings, the gorgeous colors, crisp air....apples, pumpkins, red wine. Red wine is always is season, right? I'm certainly grateful for its healthful properties. Add it to the list!
Enjoy the season. I'm certainly grateful for all the good friends who check in!
Wishing you a wonderful day....L.
