1. Letter from Lillian 
===============================

Dear Friends at the Pond:

I wanted to take a moment out of this busy week to express 
my thanks for some of the blessings of this past year. The 
past few months have been extremely eventful - for all of 
us as a nation, and for some of us on a more personal 
level. I hope you have the opportunity sometime this week 
(between vacuuming the house and getting that pie in the 
oven) to reflect on all of life's blessings. I will try to 
do the same.

First of all I am thankful to God for the unfailing love 
that he showed to us through his Son, Jesus Christ.

I am thankful for the tremendous opportunity I've had this 
year to share with many of you at The Lilly Pond web site. 

I am thankful for you, my readers and subscribers, who have 
written me notes of joy, sorrow, blessing and heartache, 
and allowed me to come into your hearts and lives with my 
responses. 

I am thankful that I've (at last!) been able to fulfill a 
life-long dream of writing and completing a book. It's 
called "Always Wear Clean Underwear" and I think you'll 
enjoy it. It's for sale on my web site thelillypond.com (If 
that sounded like a commercial, it's because it was!)

I am thankful for my family - especially my brother, Bob, 
who has tackled all the technical devices of The Lilly Pond 
and has been successful in getting my writings out to you. 
And also for my friend and step-mom, Linda, who is coming 
to my house and is going to make the dressing for our 
dinner on Thursday. (Hooray!)

I am thankful for all the good things that have happened 
this year. But since God instructs us - in everything give 
thanks - then I also have to thank Him for the things that 
have been frustrating, hard and even painful. Because those 
are the things that draw me closer to His side, and make me 
seek His face. 

My prayer is that each of you will have a Blessed 
Thanksgiving. No matter what is going on in your life right 
now, I hope that you will be able to find God's blessings 
in your life and give thanks.

With all my heart,
Lillian
