Grateful

Well, Thanksgiving is come and gone, can you believe that? 

 Even if you don't, the turkey was eaten, the pie is gone, some of us is still in a turkey coma, others are drunk. 

I, personally, am grateful For a table full of yummy food:

For a juicy turkey

For my very first apple pie: it started as a pumpkin pie, but when we opened the pumpkin, we found only seeds, no pulp. So I had to improvise and I loved it!

And for my children. When I asked them what they were thankful for, they both listed me as the first person. 

My little girl included herself in the people she's grateful for (this is huge, we worked for months of her self-esteem) and my son listed the teachers and therapist from the Autism Center.  

I'm thankful that I'm doing a few things right. 

What about you?

What's for dinner tonight?

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
This year we decided to change things up a little and have a Thanksgiving dinner instead of a lunch.

So, I spent the morning in the kitchen with my baby Michelle that helped me out to cook all sort of things.

While the turkey was baking we made chocolate chips cookies, stuffing, rolls and a beans salad.

At last, the turkey was ready:

Believe it or not, Gabriel ate obscene amounts of turkey, at least 3 serving ans his plate was full all the time! Warmed my heart and made me so happy since he's so picky and barely eats any meat.
I also made a pie, but Michelle devoured it before I could snap a picture.
For this, I'm very thankful!

What did you had?

Today is Thanksgiving day in US and like all the Americans out there, I'm counting my blessings. Of course, life it's not easy or perfect, but I do have many things to be grateful for and I want to share with all of you!

1- I'm grateful with my heart that spills all over me for my son: many of you know that he's struggling with autism and we're struggling with him to find the right therapy that works best. Few weeks ago while I was thinking about decisions to make in his behalf, so out of the blue like only autistic people know how to do, he came up to me and said: "It's gonna be all right, mommy, you're my hero!"
I'm so grateful 'cause in the last year he made giant progress: last year we spent Thanksgiving night in a ER room 'cause Gabriel busted his front teeth for not being careful. This year he was telling me all about Turkey Day, helping me around the kitchen and play and talk....I'm grateful of how far he has come :)

2- I'm grateful that I found a true friend, Michele. I know, I name her often, but she's really dear to my heart. I'm grateful that she made it through a big health problem to coma back stronger, I'm grateful for every single word she writes me and just to be a part of her life.

3- I'm grateful for all my customers and friends that supported my in my business journey for the past year...I will be nobody without you all!

But now enough about me....what are you grateful for? I really want to know!
