Happy Thanksgiving!!

This year, I'm thankful for health and family...and that my healthy family can all celebrate under one roof!  Last year, my dad and Abby were both in the hospital.  We praise God that they are both doing well after a tough year! Here is a collection of Thankfulness quotes and Bible verses I liked.  Enjoy! Happy Thanksgiving!  What are you thankful for this year?

An Ode to Children Who Only Eat Rolls on Thanksgiving

It’s Thanksgiving Day and the table’s all set. All day in the kitchen I chopped, cooked, and sweat. The green beans are ready, the potatoes are, too. The cranberry sauce is a gorgeous red hue. Sit down, have some stuffing, it’s seasoned just right. Please tell me you’re going to have at least one small bite. How about the star of the show: roasted turkey? Why are your eating habits so freaking quirky? How can it be that you fear mashed potatoes, when I’ve seen you eat dirt, rocks, some paper and Playdough? You’re making a scene, ok, please just stop crying. My dreams of a calm Thanksgiving are dying. Fine, just eat the bread. I’m tired. You win. Once again, I’ll be scraping your plate in the bin. But if you get scurvy, don’t come looking for me. It’s not my fault you eat so damn crappily. Another roll? Go ahead, please help yourself. But tomorrow get ready for Elf on the Shelf.

Thanksgiving Weekend

Our Thanksgiving included... turkeys... Christmas decorating... Serving dinner and leading activity hour at RMH... Chloe cuddling... ...and a visit to a traditional German Christmas Market in Philly!  (gotta have a little fun when you go to CHOP for appointments!) It also included lots of family time with both immediate and extended family!  I just didn't take pictures because I was busy dealing with kids! I also left my camera at my sister's house a few days ago.  My brother-in-law thoroughly enjoyed my camera before returning it to me. Stay tuned for a special series called, "The World According to Bruce!"
