As I’m writting this I’m looking out on to Angie’s beauthful backyard and pool and counting my blessings to be here with my family for this special holiday, my favorite of the year. To have the pleasure of cooking dinner with my daughter and granddaughter, and to have Jerry healing and doing so well, and to have the best son in law possible.  Very often we, as people, tend to take so much for granted. I find the older I get the more I appreciate things in life.  I guess thats how it usually goes.  I have had a longer time to reflect back and see the difference. We have had the opportunity to see our daughter grow form a wonderful inquiring child to a confident georgous , very successful woman, mother and wife.  She has grown both personally and professionally, and just keeps on surprising me with her entrepreneurial  spitit and capabilities.  We have seen  our totally beautiful granddaughter, Felecia, grow up and  have had to previledge of watching and participating in all her growing up experiences, thanks to her mommy, Angie, always including us in her mile stones.  Soon we will see her graduate from the University of North Texas with a degree of Business, with emphasis on entrepreneurship.  She has such a bright future ahead of her.  She is in a relationship with a very fine young man, Tyler Dunn who is responsible and hard working.  He will soon be discharged from the Army after just completing a tour in Afghanastan.  We could not be prouder of him. We have had the opportunity to see our daughter happily married to her “soul mate”, Tommy.  We love Tommy as our own.  Talk about a dynamo, he never ceases to amaze me with his imagination and super positive attitude. He can accomplish things that most  people only dream of. Tommy is the most creative thinking person that ever entered our lives.  He combines his creativeness with his productivity and gets miracles done.   He manages to do all these things and still remain the most thoughtful , caring and real person you would want to know. Tommy goes out of his way to make life better for other people with never a selfest bone in his body. Jerry and I are truly blessed to be here with this wonderful loving family for this splendid holiday, made so by the combined effort of all. I wish you all a HAPPY THANKSGIVING.
