I am thankful for traditions, this one in particular. Every day in November, each person here (even visitors) writes down something he is thankful for and dates and signs the leaf. Every day is something different--you can't say the same thing twice (and for the boys, they can only list one video game all month). Then it's added to our tree. The tree is on our pantry door, affixed with velcro on the inside of the door. We use sticky-tak stuff to stick the leaves on, so we can remove them, save our favorites, and use the tree again next year. This tree has about 40 leaves on it. Imagine how crowded with blessings it will be by Thanksgiving!
