I want to wish all my friends and family Happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy all the good food and company of family and friends but don't forget to thank God who has blessed us so much throughout the year. Let's make every day a day of Thanksgiving because God continues His blessings throughout the year--not just one day. Some of you I will never meet but that doesn't mean I don't think of you often and whisper a prayer for you.

A Mother’s Holiday
Up before dawn
Sweeping and mopping
Too much to do
No time for stopping.
The family is nestled
all snug in their beds,
While visions of a turkey dinner
dance in their heads.
There’s cooking to be done
and laundry to do.
gotta scrub the floors
and clean the windows too.
The TV comes on
the family is awake`--
How much more
do you think I can take
The relatives pour in with
shouts of good cheer.
Why did I offer to have
the family dinner here?
Now that the meal is done
the relatives leave amid
shouts of good wishes.
While hubby and the kids watch TV
Guess who gets stuck with the dishes!
