Lots to be thankful for

I don't know about you, but Thanksgiving at the Cleveland Household was fabulous. Six grandchildren (three of them under seven months old) and their parents filled our little log house to the brim. There wasn't a corner left untouched. As we huddle around and step-over each in our little great room/kitchen combo, we laughed, ate, played games and just hung out. I'm sure this scenario was played out in homes all across the country. But, I don't want to take it for granted. As with most families, we've had our hurts and trials throughout this year, and to have us all together, happy and healthy is a blessing I thank God for.

Over the weekend, I did have a chance to check email and received a nice surprise-- a copy of my new book cover! It's gorgeous and exactly what I'd hope it would be. My family huddled around my computer as I beamed with pride as they 'oohed and aahed' at the cover.

I can't wait to share it with you. Today, the book goes to print and by February 2010, it will be launched. An exciting few months are ahead. So stayed tuned.
Blessings all!
