What am I thankful for? My family.  Mom, Dad, Nancy, Sarah, Kristen, Erika, PJ, Phil, Robert, Brandon---and extended beyond.  Good friends far and near.  
The Maori have a word for the whole lot---the people you hold close to your heart, family whether related by blood or marriage or love---whanau.  
I'm glad we chose each other.
