Season of thankfulness

When the season of Thanksgiving comes, Marilyn Thomas finds many reasons for thanks.

Her birthday is Nov. 24, so it has always fallen around Thanksgiving. Marilyn’s favorite tradition is getting to hang out with family and friends and then celebrating with pie.

Last year she had a great-granddaughter born on her birthday as well. They used Marilyn’s name as the girl’s middle name — Micah Marilyn. Additionally, she has four kids, six grandkids, and six great-grandkids. Having a birthday around Thanksgiving is great because she can see everyone for two different reasons.

As Thanksgiving approaches, we’d love to hear your favorite traditions, as well as the reasons you find to be thankful — not only now, but throughout the year.
