Hi Kosmos Members!
It is the start of the holiday season, with bazaars, craft shows, gift hunting, and holiday dinners. Best of all, it's a time for families and friends to come together to enjoy these events.
Thanksgiving is a day we acknowledge the things we are thankful for, yet really it is a reminder that every day we should look around us and notice the blessings we have.
Enjoy the November days ahead, and I hope to see you at our Kosmos events.
—Sue R., Kosmos Leader
