Happy Thanksgiving! As you gather with loved ones today to give thanks, we at Triad Moms on Main have much to be thankful for as well. Every day we work hard to make our roles as parents a little easier, and we couldn’t do it without the incredible support we receive from all our loyal fans, friends and sponsors!

Our inspiration comes from our children, and above all, we count our blessings for our families. This season we also want to acknowledge those who have suffered a loss and will be without a loved one this year. Or those who are sick, without employment, without a home, or facing other hardships. We are beginning one of the most joyous times of the year, but we also recognize it can be one of the hardest times as well.

As a team, we asked our kids to share what they are thankful for, and the responses were too cute and touching not to share. We’d love to hear from your children as well. Please join in and add your child’s “thankful quote” as a comment at the end of this post too!

From all of us at TMoM, we wish you a Thanksgiving full of blessings!
