THE MOST THANKFUL FOR...

I had THE BEST Thanksgiving ever. My daughter and I went to New York City. It was her first time. I grew up in Westchester N.Y. until about the 7th grade. My parents divorced. My mom, brother and I moved to Florida. My Dad stayed in New York for the best treatments offered at Albert Einstein Hospital for his brain cancer. We would fly up from Florida quite often and spend summers in NYC. We all had great times. Some of my very best memories were right there. Ice skating at Rockerfeller Center, the Rockettes, Carriage rides through Central Park, Fao Schwartz, Hot dogs from street vendors, pizza by the slice bigger than your face, the list goes on. This year I was able to experience all of this and more through my daughter's eyes. As if the trip could not get any better my mom, John (her s.o. of 10 years) and one of my nephews met us there. We had Thanksgiving dinner at Tavern on the Green. On Friday Chris flew in and spent the weekend with us and we all saw WICKED on Broadway.
A little over eight years ago my daughter was born. I never knew how much love I was capable of giving. It continues to grow and at times over flows. Not one day goes by I am not Thankful. She is my most precious gift. Thank you God.

I hope all of you had a really wonderful holiday. I never understood this whole blog thing until a friend of mine introduced me to it. You know who you are, and Thanks. My blogland friends rock!
