Thanksgiving was amazing this year. I think it was so much better then in years past because I had Donnie there. Not that I haven't had him there before but I just didn't know if he'd be in the hospital this year. He's been in and out of the hospital so much and the dates are never for sure until he's there, that I was afraid we would be with out him. So, I was thankful that we all were able to spend it together. I come from a very large ( loud ;) Italian family and we always spend the holidays together. This year it was at my Aunt Row's house {you're welcome for volunteering you}. The last couple years, if we haven't been at my mom's we've had everything at my house, but I was happy to let another relative enjoy hosting our family ;) All kidding aside, we all had a wonderful time! I am so incredibly grateful for my entire family, they have definitely made all the difference during this hard time for us. I have so much to be thankful for this year! Sometimes, I get down and out, and I wonder why all of this is happening to us, but then I remember that there is so much to be thankful for. And to be honest, we have a whole lot! I have learned that it's not the things you have, it's the relationships that make you truly blessed. And I feel blessed! Happy Thanksgiving everyone, I hope you found a reason to be thankful this year :)
