As a lead-in to this week of Thanksgiving, here’s Gratitude Sunday.  The above is a little video of Jay’s Kindergarten class singing a song called Thanks a Lot.  The video is not much to look at, but if the sound of those little voices singing doesn’t melt your heart, I don’t know what will.  I’m [...]
