Greetings! I am going through all of my comments and found yours on mine! We do have so much in common. We both love the Wizard of Oz. There is no place like home! I use to have your Carol Endres wallpaper border in my kitchen and use to raise sheep. I love the Proverbs scripture! Have a lovely Thanksgiving! Audrey
Very nice thoughts, indeed. I need to sit back and reflect on what I am thankful and grateful for in my life. Thanks for the lovely reminder.

Lovely and wise words in your post!
Hope to see lots of posts throughout the season -- I really enjoy your blog!!!
I noticed the "Be thankful" was by author unknown, but knowing you have used it on our blog and respecting the words and photographs of others, I wondered if you would mind if I included it to my last newsletter of the year from our website, giving your blog the full credit of seeing it there first? They are powerful words and ones that should be remembered and shared. Thank you for posting them.
in fond regard, Tilda of HighButtonShoe
