happy thanksgiving

Each time my family gathers around the Thanksgiving table, before we begin the meal we are reminded of the story of the 5 kernels of corn.  We then go around the table, and we each take turns naming the things for which we are most grateful.  This year Amanda and Emma included this poem at each place setting.  I thought it was perfect.  Short and sweet, and exactly true. 

 

 

And then after dinner, auntie Miggie gave Dare and his 2 cousins LuLu and JuJu a bath.  A special treat to have them visit from Colorado!

 

note: JuJu (to his right, is 3 months OLDER than him.  He is like 3 in taller, and 7 lbs heavier!)
