Oh my Thankful Friends...
My blogs have taken a back seat to a busy summer & fall.
But Thankfulness has not been pushed aside
no matter how much I procrastinate posting!
In this month full of pumpkin spice, crunching leaves, and foggy mornings--my heart has felt full
and my spirits lifted
by the many large & little things for which I am trying to be
purposefully
grateful.
Shall we?
