Small Thanksgiving but Large Blessings
This Thanksgiving will be a quiet one for me. My children will all be either working or with their in-laws. I am used to tables full of people, lots of noise from children playing, etc. This year we will have grown-ups only. The number has went from 30 people to approximately 8. Even though I wish my family could all be around the table and with me on Thanksgiving, I still feel very blessed just to have them. We will be together at Christmas, which is always special, but especially this year since my youngest son will be deployed in the spring. I am thankful for the 2 grandbabies on the way, and pray for them to be safe, happy, and healthy. I am also thankful for my boyfriend, who brings so much to my life. I am thankful for the rest of my family who mean so much to me. I am thankful for my employment, my home, HEAT, and chocolate! I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving, even if everyone you love cannot be there will you.
