Happy ThanksGiving

I would like to start of by sayig happy thanksgiving to everyone. There is a lot i have to be thankful for this year starting with being home. I spent the last year away in Iraq, and I am thankful for that this year I will be able to be with my family. I have a wife that I love and do not know what I do with out. She has been there for me for everything, and I only hope one day that I can could give her even half the support she as given me. I am also thankful for the four wonderful children that me and my wife Melanie have; Cameron, Natalie, Sydney, and Benjamin. We are truly bless with our wonderful children.
This being the offical start to the holiay season I thought I would start off by blogging my holiday wish. I have spent many holidays by going through the motions, but this year I want to make it special for me and my family. I would like to enjoy every single day of te season. I also want to share the true meaning of the holidays with my children. Iwould like to teach them its not about the gifts but the enjoyment of life, shareing with others, family, giving gifts of more then monitary value. I know it might sound sappy I do relize that, but sometimes that is what it takes to realy enjoy the season. There is no greater feeling then to know that you have touched the lives of others.
