Sometimes, it's just good news.

We just had an appointment with our Pediatric Neurologist and we don't have to schedule an MRI this year. It's great news. Apparently, Cully is doing well on the Keppra so that there isn't enough reason to go probing deeper into his brain.  It feels like something else to be thankful for as Turkey Day approaches. But as Chabon once again so eloquently explains in his article in Bon Appetit, giving thanks isn't always about all the good stuff in a year. Sometimes, it seems like we forget to give thanks to the challenges and failed attempts that give us something...else. It's good to consider that we can give thanks for our saddest moments because, really, they count, too.
