Years ago when I was only thirteen years old, a lovely couple came to stay with my family. They were from our church and heard their was a family of five that needed someone to stay with them while their father was in treatment for chemical dependency. Well that was all she wrote, we have been close ever since. So to there house we go now for Thanksgiving. I am so truly grateful for them and how they had the strength to stay with my crazy family of five.
I hope you all have a very pleasant and heart felt thanksgiving.
What a lovely couple they sound. I know you'll have a wonderful thanksgiving.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful that you found some great friends when your family needed them most--and have become "family" in your own sense--and get to spend the holidays with them!! AWESOME :)

ReplyDeleteWe are family and love it. Us sibs have no family of origin parents, so it feels good to have C and J. They are the best. I still can't believe they stayed with us for 3 months with us five kids.
