Today being the first day of November, many of us have started thinking about Thanksgiving and, in turn, the many things we have to be thankful for. Like many people, I will be participating in a Thirty Days of Gratitude project wherein I photograph one thing (or more) that I am thankful for every day of November. I thank God everyday for the blessings of my health, my family, and my ability to spend time doing things that I love. And I hope the next thirty days of photographs captures some of that.

Day 1:  I am grateful for the sweetness on my daughters’ faces while they sleep.  (And I am grateful for high ISO cameras that allow me to take pictures of them without waking them up.)
