Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others. Cicero
Speaking of parents, I am grateful for my parents and for the right to be a parent. One of the joys of life is to be a proud parent of wonderful children. I am grateful for that joy in my life. When I look back at my childhood I have some great memories. I remember my fifth birthday when my grandfather and father came pulling up in the red pickup with “Blackie” a black Labrador Retriever. I actually wanted to call him spot cause he had a white spot on his throat. But my grandfather suggested I go another route!
I remember out vacation to Maine when my brother freaked out over the horse with the antlers that turned out to be a 500 pound moose! I remember the potato chips with sour cream and onion dip on Sunday evenings to watch Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom! Yes I am grateful for my parents and today for the ability to have great children that I can be a parent to!
Go, Go, Go…
