Thanksgiving

As I sat and contemplated all the things I am most thankful for this season, I decided that beyond a doubt my sweet wife was the one person for whom I am most thankful! I knelt down and gratefully thanked the Lord for the wonderful qualities that He placed in his little handmaiden, Anita.
