Aahh, the savory aroma of ham wafting through the air with hints of sweet brown sugar! It must be Thanksgiving! The table is set with fresh baked sweet potatoes; mashed potatoes with a hint of garlic; green bean casserole topped with crispy, salty, onion-y goodness; yeast rolls and a side of gravy!
Around the table is the blessing of family and warm eyes. So many blessings and so much to be grateful for. I miss my boy but I know he's safe in God care as he travels the world with LCU's study abroad group.
Today was a laid back day to enjoy the festivities of the Macy's Day Parade. At Frankie's request we watched Charlie Brown's Thanksgiving Special. And when we had rested a bit from our big feast we enjoyed a sliver of cheesecake or two. There may have been some napping in the late afternoon!
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
