Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!
Before we went to my inlaws for turkey and dressing, mashed potatoes and pecan pie,
we spent Thanksgiving morning at the Dallas Zoo.
We wandered around, watching monkeys swinging on bars, birds flying between branches and snakes sticking their tongues out at us.
Lots of snakes and lots of tongues.
And all the time I'm thinking how blessed we are.
Blessed to be together.
Blessed with our health and happiness.
Blessed to be a Texan, and live in America,
and to know not ever to take that for granted.
Blessed to live in a world that sees a significance in having zoos.
and appreciates snakes that stick out their tongues.
Blessed that I don't eat my food while it's still alive.
And Blessed with wonderful friends like you.
That travel along with us on our sometimes crazy adventures,
and sometimes just to the zoo.
Blessed. Blessed. Blessed.
