Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving from the Marlow's!

Matt and I might not be together this holiday, but we are both still in each other's hearts and thoughts. We hope that everyone has a great thanksgiving and takes time to reflect today on what they are thankful for.

Matt and I are so exceptionally thankful for so many things, and here are a few:

1) To have found each other, fallen in love, and become a family....for date nights...and quality time...for the ability to talk about everything and anything (even disagreements)...for holding hands and snuggling...

2) Our families....we are so thankful to have such an amazing support center that there is always here to help us, listen, and love us unconditionally!

3) For our close friends....those who listen to us vent, those that giggle and laugh with us, those that cry with us, those that play fantasty football/basketball/baseball with us, those that let us know their opinions (even when they are completely different than what we think)...

4) For Molly who greets us (ok, namely Matt) every night like she hasn't seen him in forever, snuggling at night, listening and holding several conversations with Kelly when Matt's away with the team, for her strong ability to defy cancer, and for her latest yearly checkup giving her a clean bill of health with no new tumors and liver levels that dropped from 891 to 250 (normal is 200-260).

5) For our lives...for the fact that we were able to be educated at excellent universities, the ability to have jobs in today's economy (even if it isn't what we were educated to do or like...it's a job and we are thankful)...for good health (despite current cold for Kelly)...for the ability to have a home with lights, heat (although we've not used it)/air (used more than you can imagine), food on the table, two cars...let's face it...our lives are blessed and we are very thankful!

6) For memories....especially of those close to us that we have lost...to be able to remember what they did, stories, funny things they said, things you had in common with them, things you differed on completely...
