Our top ten

It's important to be thankful year round, but Thanksgiving always makes us especially pensive and reflective towards what we value and appreciate. Here is our family's top ten list of what we are truly thankful for:

1.) Our health and well-being.
2.) A wonderful, thoughtful and caring family.
3.) The city of Buffalo. It is really "the city of light," and a wonderful place to call home.
4.) Our citizenship. Oh how lucky we are to be American!
5.) Four walls, a roof and a bed to sleep in.
6.) Our friends near and far who sustain us with laughter, love and companionship.
7.) Books! Reading is a pleasure that brightens even the dreariest of days.
8.) A plethora of good food. We don't really appreciate all the farmers do to make this possible.
9.) Life! Not everyone is fortunate to be allowed this precious gift.
10.) Our faith. Without this wonderful gift we'd truly be floundering in a broken world.
