Amanda Kloots said she is “choosing to count [her] blessings” before celebrating the first Thanksgiving with her 1-year-old son since the death of her husband, Broadway actor Nick Cordero.

Kloots has shared a number of heart-wrenching social media posts following Cordero’s death from COVID-19 in July at the age of 41 after several months in the intensive care unit at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.

In a new Instagram post, she writes about finding things she is thankful for along with a picture of Elvis, her and Cordero’s son.

“I read a passage today that said to find the little things everyday that God gives you,” Kloots captioned the Instagram post. “Collect them, one by one, and by the end of the day you’ll see you have a beautiful bouquet.”

“It would be very easy to go into this Thanksgiving week counting my losses but I’m choosing to count my blessings. This guy is at the top of my list,” she wrote, referring to Elvis, photographed playing on a playground during a recent sunny day.

Last month, Kloots also shared on Instagram a photo of a vase she made out of Cordero’s ashes.

The two met in 2014 as cast mates in the Broadway musical adaptation of “Bullets Over Broadway,” for which Cordero earned a Tony nomination, but had recently moved to Los Angeles for Cordero’s run in “Rock of Ages” before he became sick.
