Greetings, Steemian Friends

. Thanksgiving... A simple concept. Though it means much more to us than just a simple word or term. Especially in countries such as Canada and America. The tradition starting long ago. When the Indians and the Pilgrims came together. It means since that time. Every year on a special day in November.. We stop and take a bit of extra time to express our thanks and gratitude for what we have in life. We count our blessings, Gather together to share stories of our forefathers. Celebrate with a bountiful feast from the Autumn harvest, roasted turkey with all the yummy trimmings, with the people we love. So, lets check out our Steemian friends and their posts that we are thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all...

Here on the Steemit platform, we have all grown into a family type of community. With many Steemians developing strong bonds from the very beginning of Steemit. But like many modern busy families, we get so caught up in what we are doing, that we can sometimes unintentionally forget to think about showing our love and thanks to our own relatives and loved ones. It happens much the same with our Steemit family. We get so busy and lose tract. And at times forget to visit those that we have put in past issues. Then we remember and think to ourselves how special all of you really are to us. How thankful we are to each and every one of you. Today we wanted to shine some gratitude onto a few. Starting with. @mother2chicks in which we shared a post back in our Issue #10 - Homesteading--Self Sufficient Living, every week she shares her [WEEKLY CHICKEN GAZETTE](https://steemit.com/homesteaders/@mother2chicks/weekly-chicken-gazette-issue-17) sharing the happenings down on the homestead, [you should stop by and see the cutest new additions.](https://steemit.com/homesteaders/@mother2chicks/weekly-chicken-gazette-issue-17)
