On a personal note and most importantly I am thankful for a lot more things but I broke them down for you, just below.
T - Tirana, the capital of Albania, the city I met my husband at and fell in love with; the city where Vivian was born; the city I called home for 4 years.
H - Home, because home is where the heart is. Whether I am in Europe or America, despite what continent or corner of the world I am at, as long as the people who mean the most to me, as long as Vivian is with me, I am happy.
A - Angels, all of my deceased grandparents who are the beautiful angels who look down on me, protect me and smile at me.
N - November, the month of giving thanks; my favorite month for Fall; the month we remind ourselves that having a rich turkey dinner to eat and a roof over our heads is a lot more than what so many others have.
K - Korca, my birth-town; that little city in Albania where I spent the first 16-17 years of my life at and I will always look back with the fondest of memories.
S - Stefani, my mother; the beautiful, gracious, big-hearted, kind, soft, fantastic, amazing woman who birthed me, raised me, cared for me, loved me and educated me and for that I am so blessed and lucky because she is one fantastic woman and the best grandma to my daughter.
G - God; without God nothing is possible and to Him I am thankful for everything I have and all that I am.
I - Ilir, my brother; I am so proud to call him my brother. He is selfless, generous, kind, loving, funny, hard-working, and the most wonderful uncle to Vivian (you should see him with my daughter; her face lights up when she sees her uncle Ilir).
V - Vivian, my daughter. This doesn't need much explanation at all but I am a better person because of Vivian. She is my light, my love, my heart, my world, my everything. I am so blessed and happy that she is my beautiful daughter.
I - Immersed; I am thankful for all the beauty of the season that surrounds me and all the giving and generosity from almost everyone that has immersed me. I am feeling the Holiday Spirit. I am feeling the love. I am feeling Thanksgiving and I am feeling Christmas.
N - Nineteen; my daughter was born on January 19th of 2013 so ever since number nineteen means so much to me and every month when the 19th rolls over, in my heart I celebrate yet another month of Vivian's life and how much she means to me.
G - Gifts and by that I mean my Family because they are my biggest gift, both my immediate and my non-immediate family. These people are my gifts; these people have always been loving, caring and supportive to me since the day I was born. And speaking of gifts they have always showered Vivian with so much love and so many gifts, too.
I wanted to wrap it up with this quote below by John Kennedy because it is 100% how I feel, too.
What are you thankful for this Fall 2015? What are your plans for tomorrow? What about this Black Friday? I will be back with a couple of Fashion posts this weekend. I wish you all a Good Night and a Very Happy and Healthy Thanksgiving!!
