Thanksgiving, and I ate my
Simple meal alone.
This year my table will be
Overflowing with food and
Lots of love.
My family has enlarged.
Lia's new husband, David, and
His grandma will be joining us.
It's how life goes.
Families increase and
Decrease.
We add extra chairs one year and
Remove them the next.
It's not always easy.
Sometimes we cry.
But we adapt.
Whether I am surrounded by
My loving family or sit down at
The table by myself, I pause to
Pray.
I bow my head and give thanks.
I always give thanks.
