today on thanksgiving dy, while Dh is laying in bed sick i am sitting here counting all the wonderful blessing we have had in our life; fight up to today.... i am remembering the thanksgiving when i was a child and how we would go to our one aunts for dinner and there would be the cousisn we hadn't seen much of, and hear all the boy had this one or that one has grown, the smells of the food and our beelies growling, and swiping an olive or something fromthe table before we where called. then on to being a teenager and getting to now sit at the big table, helping with the setting of the table and getting to help do the dishes, we had one aunt that loved to get into towel fights... to when i got to host our first thanksgiving dinner as a married women. of couse had to start the turkey on fire that year... and all the many others that followed with friends and family, ginning as our daughter swipe an olive from the table .. to the days when she started to host the thanksgiving dinners and watching the grandchildren grow and go from the kids table to the big table( well three still at the little table). i can recall some pickering going on but they didn't amount to much in my memories, jsut that all was there to gather for a day of Thanksgiving.
today i give thanks that i have those memmories to recall and enjoy.
