Thankful

As is often the case when we travel, when we get home Eva is ecstatic to play with her things and in her room, etc. We came back from Asheville on Saturday and had the better part of the day on Sunday to get reoriented here. One of the first things she did was draw this Thanksgiving picture. It made me think of the many things I am thankful for, most especially my bright, happy, busy girl.

Eva is thankful for her teacher, Mrs. Flynn, her family (and by this she means the whole family -- Mommy, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins), Erma (her nanny "who isn't my nanny anymore, but who is still my friend, Mom"), and Ocelot (her favorite stuffed animal).

We're both thankful for all our dear friends who support and encourage us in so many ways.
