Freedom
There are so many things to be thankful for, that list could go on for quite some time. But I stopped at Freedom, because without it, everything else suffers. I’m incredibly thankful to the men and women in service who make so many sacrifices to safekeep the freedoms that we have.
We don’t often get a chance to directly thank our service people.
Here’s your chance: Hop over to Mommy Snark’s blog. Every Sunday, she highlights a service member and gives you a chance to thank them personally in the comments section. She collects the comments all week long, and then sends them to the spotlighted family at the end of the week.
I’m thankful for the ridiculous number of blessings in my life. Having a chance to thank a service member directly just got added to the list.

What a cool idea.
Thanks for reminding us how lucky we are. Many people on this planet can't do what we're doing right now, blogging freely, because of economic or political blocks. Freedom should never be taken for granted.
Happy Thanksgiving, Susan.
There ARE so many things to be thankful for. My list came up way too long because I had so many things to be thankful for.
I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving, Susan! 🙂
Thank you for this. Thank you for remembering our servicemen and women. As a mother of two servicemen – a sailor who is currently deployed and serving somewhere on the otherside of the world and a soldier training to go to Afghanistan, I am so thankful that people like you are honoring servicemen and women. It warms my heart. Thank you again.

@Tricia You are so right! Have you heard about the anonymous blogger that got arrested in the Middle East? It's definitely something we shouldn't take for granted.
@Kristina Happy Thanksgiving! 🙂
