I love Thanksgiving! It is so neat that we have a holiday where we take a break to count our many blessings. And boy do we have so many. Heavenly Father certainly must love me because he has blessed me so richly.
I find it so perfect that Thanksgiving comes one month prior to Christmas. During Christmas we celebrate the life of our Savior Jesus Christ. Thanksgiving is a wonderful opportunity to express gratitude to my Savior for all that he has done for me; without the distraction of the commercialism that the Christmas Holiday often brings.
I love that Thanksgiving is a holiday that focuses on the family. I have long enjoyed the feast that included favorite foods like olives. But, what really makes Thanksgiving so wonderful is the time spent with family.
