Oreo Turkeys

 I get a little overwhelmed when I think about everything I am grateful for in my life. I think that is why it has taken me a little too long to post about Thanksgiving. I get a little nervous when we are sitting at the Thanksgiving table, taking turns, telling each other what we are thankful for. I'm pretty good at communicating (most of the time), but when it comes to talking about my biggest blessings and tender mercies, I have a hard time getting through it without getting emotional. I'm not sure what to say and how to best express myself recently. It's like my mouth overflows with too many thoughts and words and I can't seem to say it just like I want. The best part about gratitude is that there is no wrong way to count your blessings! Soooo...here I go. It's worth a shot.
