Well, Thanksgiving is here and we await the coming of "family." This year we will have three new members of our group. They include two grandchild, who only became aware of each other yesterday, and the grandmother of our SIL.
Included will be the parents of SIL, the parents of DIL, MIL, daughter and husband, son and wife. Including the babies that should add up to a rather manageable fourteen.
Four years ago we had forty, with the garage turned into a dining room. Now that was a Thanksgiving to remember.
Niece will have some of the scattered members of the family to Fort Collins, for Turkey day. and brother in Corvallis, Oregon, will have members of his family there.
There is a multitude of people for whom I give thanks. They played a major role in my life that cannot be measured. Without their help and counsel, I would have been nothing.
"For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in."
