Monday - Getting Ready for Thanksgiving

When I was growing up we would watch the Waltons every week.  I loved the Waltons' Thanksgiving episode, and I still watch it if it plays on tv.  There is something warm and comforting about a simple way of life, true values, and the love of family.  I hope that the families of today build those types of relationships and memories.  I know that it takes an extra effort to cook a meal at home, especially when both parents work outside the house.  With kids being so involved with sports and hobbies, it is easier to drive-thru for supper.  I know, I am guilty of that myself.  But one thing I have learned is that the best conversations my kids and I have had are at the dinner table at home.  I'm blessed with good kids and I hope they take the good memories and cherish them.  I also hope that they will learn from my mistakes and shortcomings, and build upon them.  I wish you all a very happy harvest season with your family and friends.
