It's lovely to read Ashley's post and learn some more about her. I wish you all the best with your Shadows books Ashley. And thank you for visiting my blog today.
Good morning!  Ithought since today is Thanksgiving, I thought a post about things I'm thankfulfor would be appropriate.  Like many, Idon't take the time to stop and be thankful as much as I should so that is whatI'm doing now!
First, I'm thankful for God. He saved me and has been with me through everything!  I can never express how thankful I am for allthat He has done for me.  
Second is my family. I have a wonderful husband and 2 great children that I don't know what Iwould ever do without.  They make my lifecomplete and I adore all of them.  Not tomention my extended family with which I am equally blessed.  My parents, grandparents, siblings, niece& nephews along with a host of cousins are all extremely supportive andloving.   
Third is the wonderful life I have.  I have a life I love and that I cannotimagine life different from this one.  Iwork, take my kids with me to the office, and write.  I spend enormous amounts of time with my kidsthrough the day and I love it.  I havethe ability and desire to home school my children and am excited aboutthat.  Writing is my passion and there istime to sit and get lost in my own stories and worlds.  Getting to indulge in my passion is sofulfilling!
Last, I'm thankful for all my friends. The ones that I'vemet both on line and in person.  You arethe best group of people that I could ever ask to be surrounded by.  Thank you so much for befriending me and forsupporting me through the different things in my life.  I love all of you!Thank you so much Shelia for having me today & I hopeeveryone has a happy Thanksgiving!!
