53 Grateful Haiku

For my 53rd Birthday, I’m collecting Gratitudes from the people in my world and turning them into Haiku. This will be a live, running document until I reach 53, so keep coming back for more Grateful Goodness as I add more each day!

(**If YOU contributed, look for YOUR initials to find YOUR Special Haiku!**)
