Thanksgiving Day

Today was Thanksgiving. I spent a quiet morning doing some housework and then headed off to Lake Oswego to spend the day with my Aunt and Uncle and their family. It was good to see everyone. I seldom have the chance to sit and talk and spend much time with them. So it was very good to have some time with them.

There was lots of laughter, lots of conversation and good food to top it all off. As much as I enjoyed being with them I have to admit a lingering feeling of sadness today. I miss the days of having the family gather round and days spent cooking and preparing.

But regardless, today was good and I am thankful for so many things. And that is what Thanksgiving is really about.
