What are you thankful for?

My autistic adult children, 34 and 33 are the light of my life. Since losing their Dad suddenly last year to a stroke, it was a tough year for anyone. They handled it with remarkable strength and resilience, taking time to remember and reflect their blessings with him. As we gather around the table this year, we celebrate each other and each of our fond memories together.
