We put up our Gratitude Tree again for the month of November. It has been a lot of fun adding a leaf everyday and reading what everybody is thankful for this year. This is one of our favorite family traditions we started a couple of years ago - see here & here for past years trees.

No Americans have been more impoverished than these who,
nevertheless, set aside a day of thanksgiving.
