What are you thankful for?

I'm thankful for all my children and grandchildren and their happy and smiling faces. I have always heeded my granddaughter Gracie's words of wisdom when she was a toddler. "Don't be sad Pappy, be happy". On a selfish note I also am thankful for my health teams. I'm still breathing after several health scares and still working at 76 years old.
