We Are Thankful...

for family walks down quiet country roads.
for seeing a turkey strut!
for seeing 3 large alligators (we were in the car).
for walks by the lake.
for a balancing daddy.
for egg hunt lunches.
for our sports star.
for boat driving lessons on a hot March afternoon.
and so much more. Elliott's surgery to remove his brain tumor is scheduled for Monday morning. Please keep him and our family in your thoughts and prayers.

    You are and will continue to be in my prayers. I've been there (my dad had a brain tumor), and I want to offer your family my support the only way I can.
