Happy Thanksgiving!
October 8th, 2007
I’ve just finished cleaning up from Thanksgiving dinner. We always have lots of family and I love seeing my chidren interact with their relatives. We get so mired in the everyday that it’s really nice to step back and see the big picture. There are more people than just me, for my children to learn from.
My cousin is in the military, so he didn’t make it home, but Fuss really loves talking to him about aeroplanes, my cousin’s passion, and all things ’soldier’. My other cousin is a musician, so he now gets out my guitar and plays for a bit. He plays electric at home, so his mother loves to hear him play not quite so loudly. Fuss thinks he’s cool.
Uncle Donny is into motorcycles - so is Fuss, so there is a lot of conversation going on there!
My brother and his wife didn’t make it, and Fuss was so incredibly disappointed. He had a slight meltdown as he watched his father take the places away and rearrange the table. We’ll have to have them over in the next few weeks to make up for it.
So, as much as it’s a day for cooking and cleaning for me, it’s an evening to relax and watch Fuss learn from those around us. Oh, and to watch The Bug EAT!
Enjoying the journey, Amanda
